It won't flash any if there aren't any to flash. It should at least flash code 12 when you use the test terminals. If it doesn't then you probably have a bad ECM. Make sure that you have power going to the ECM first. Most of the GM cars have a power wire running from the battery directly to the ECM. Make sure this is connected and the ECM fuse is good.
