Well,

Installed the DP Tuner tonight... or tried. I just finished and no start. Engine cranks but nothing. Should the display on the DP tuner show a tune number or something?

Did you clean the contacts on the pcm, Do all the lights on the dash come on

Yes sure did with the scotch bright... all dash lights come on, wait to start comes on then turns off... turn key and no start, no lights on the switch to indicate a tune im starting in.

it does... acetone a good thing to try on the contacts? Ive pulled it back out, thinking of trying some incase I left some silicone

BTW- say the cable came out of the chip in the ECU, would that cause it to not start? Wondering if maybe thats what happened
