check fuses and relays. sometimes if the vehicle is prewired but doesnt have that packaged installed they wont install fuses or relays.

if you have a volt meter then start checking at the plugs, relay and fuse to see if you even get power. If you dont have one they are cheap to come by and really do come in handy.
