Your flame sensor,also known as a radiant sensor, is located on the burner inlet tube housing(a little black box with 2 wires attached to it, usually black and white)on the outside of the inlet tube.

Are you sure your connections at the new coils are not loose ?

Are you sure you did not loosen any of the other wire connections by accident ?

Are you sure you did not crack or break the igniter ?

After the repair and at this time nothing occurs, no clicks, no glow from the igniter and of course no flame, is that correct ?

Power to the igniter and radiant sensor is dispersed from the coil harness to the components, and power to the coils is dispersed from the timer,through the thermostats and or the temperature select switch(on some models) in a heating cycle. Make sure the dial is in a heat mode, not a cool down or no heat setting.
