Start with basics

Check all fuses, back probe the following pins on ECM interface connector to make sure that it has power, key ign on:

A6, B1, C16

also do not forget ECM grounds:
A12, D1

Do you have VATS?

Does engine turn over?
If it is turning over do you see tach wiggle a bit??

Post what you have??
