No crank after tune...help!!

Got my newly tuned PCM in the mail today from Ion at Madz28.com, installed it, cranked up, idled good for a few minutes, shut it off and re-cranked it once, idled a few more minutes, went to shut it off and crank it again and now I got nothing. It's got plenty of battery power, good cables and connections, but turn the key and not even a click. I hear the fuel pump kick on and off, and all the gauge lights do their thing, just nothing when i try to crank it. Any suggestions?

check the starter. If it was a pcm problem, more than likely the fuel pump wouldnt kick on properly when you first turn the key on.

K, got that resolved, jacked it up and beat on the starter with a hammer a bit and it cranked right up .
Had already tried that, but didnt have the car jacked up so I couldn't really see what i was doing, nor did I have much room to swing the hammer.

Thanks anyway
