Default Instrument Panel Not Working (help quickly plz)

Hey guys, i recently did a m6 swap and put in a new motor. Now my guages dont work at all, they act like a ground is off but there were no ground disconnected in the int. and all the wires are attached under the dash/steering. the only thing that i couldnt find a place for was the black connector by the shifter between the two cigarette lighter connectors. it has a pink, brown, black, gray, and another color i forget. would this be causeing my probs or something else...where are the grounds and controls for the guages that i could check, also would anything under the hood cause the guages to not work?

did you swap the same year model engine etc as your car into your car

(meaning did you put a 1999 in to your 1999 car or did you mix it up)

no but its an ls6 not just an ls1 to ls1 swap. i forgot about this post, it turned out to be an engine ground though...the same ground controlled spark and the guages so it fixed both my problems.
