No start after chip installed

Just installed a hypermaxx chip in my 2003 7.3 F250.
The chip is for a 2002. Now when I go to start it I have no glow plug light and it just cranks. I remove the chip and it starts fine. Possible wrong calibration for PCM? Or did I not get the PCM cicuit board clean enough?
Thanks for the help.

If the family of PCM is different and or the calibration is for auto or manual could cause this , so its most likely just the wrong code
