Unfortunately, I didn't keep records of which wire went where when I hooked mine up. I would think that if your power light comes on, though, you've almost certainly got the +19V line in the right place, and probably the ground and "plug sensing" lines in the right place too (though it might come on if those were swapped.).
Does it work if you have the battery charged and the power plug not plugged in? Having the jack hooked up wrong shouldn't affect whether that works, so that's one way to test it. If it still doesn't work then, you've probably damaged something else somewhere -- or possibly just not hooked something up right when you were putting the rest of it back together. Maybe try taking it apart and putting it back together, and see if that helps?
For that matter -- the batteries have a little display on the side that you can use to tell if they're charged. Does letting it sit with the battery-charging light on for a while cause the battery to get charged? Does the battery-charging light eventually go off? If those happen, that's also an indication that you hooked things up right.

Beyond that, I don't know. Sorry.
