Default no rpm gauge after head/cam swap

Ok started my car for the first time this evening. runs and idles on its own no problem. everything sounds good and is working as it should. except for the rpm gauge. it isn't showing any rpm. So i think that it is after the computer since it wouldn't run as well if it was not reading any rpm.. i could be wrong though. Also my traction control light is on and the button does not do anything (related?)

Here is the run down of the car:
pulled the motor to do this
factory 243 heads
sns cam
fast 92/92
brian tooley springs
ls7 lifters (they are silent!!!!)
also did tick mc, monster stage 2, and underdrive pulley

here is a video too https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?v...65751734550242

If the car is running then its a gauge issue, might have damaged a wire on install

Did you make sure that you put the grounds back on the back of the head?
