1999 Chevy Suburban Four Wheel Drive Automatic

I just changed the turn signal control switch and now when I start my suburban it dies right away, I'm thinking it might be a security problem any ideals

Sounds to me like you may have damaged the vats senor inside the igition lock cylinder. This is a two wire connector that tells the body control module that its the correct key going into the ignition. Problem is they have to be programmed to match key when replaced.
