    no crank, no start

    Hey all,
    I am finishing up my swap and tried starting it...the lights on the check panel come on and the dash lights up, but when I crank it, nothing! No crank!

    I read about the wires behind the glove box that need to be connected together, but I cant see anything resembling what wiki is explaining. I have one connector (2 pin) with one green/black wire and another one (4 pin) with a purple/black and red/black wires. I cant seem to locate any other wires anywhere behind the glove box.

    I have checked the battery, good!
    The power distribution box, good!
    ECU relay is getting power!
    Engine ground is good and so are the injector ground, as well as ignition coil ground.
    ECU ground also good!

    Am I missing something? I would like to start with the wiring in the glove box and go from there, but any suggestions/help/recommendations appreciated!

    HELP!

    Is your starter getting power? It should run without the wires in the glove box.
