Default ignition switch?

i just finished putting my motor back in and the car cranks but wont turn over. the fuel pump is not turning on. the fuse for the FP is good but had no power going to it. i tested the ignition switch and it does not have power either. is there something i could have forgot to plug in or ground that would cause the ignition switch to not get power or should i just replace the ignition switch?

Default just check all those grounds again. they are all good.

i searched the forums an i know i have the symptoms of a bad ignition switch but it was ok before i took the motor out so i wanna say maybe i forgot to hook something back up? but yeah the grounds are all tight with a clean contact

Default Do you have a check engine light with the ignition switched on?

Make sure all of the connectors behind the ECU (including the black one tucked into the corner) are plugged in.
