Question new chip, no start

Good evening.i have a 2000 f250 with the 7.3 and I got my chip from php today and after clining the terminals and installing it. It wont get the wait to start light. I removed the chip and the truck starts and runs fine. I clean the terminals a little more and still no start. I had copper starting to show so I stopped cleaning. In one side you can see copper a little and the other you cant see it. I dont know what else to do. Any help as always will be appreciated

This.

Look into real tuning and not "canned tunes". look in the 7.3 diesel section and see what everyone is running. Its been a while since I had my 7.3 but I have heard good things about Tony wildman, and gearhead tunes but its been a while. Personally if your truck is stock and you have no way to monitor EGT's do not "chip" it.
