Welcome!

I'd suggest to first check for fault codes. My '01 Z had a similar issue, and at the time I had code B2723 CH, which set me down the right path.

If you're interested in my "saga" you can find it documented here: https://www.corvetteforum.com/forums...post1602172814

Use a multi meter to see if you have 12v across the other two wires in that connector while holding the key on crank.

As mentioned in previous reply check for 12v across the yellow and yellow black stripped wires at the TDR. The yellow wire provides 12v from the Ignition switch contacts and goes to the clutch safety switch and then on to the TDR.The yellow black stripped wire originates at the BCM which provides a ground if everything is OK with the VATs, is your Security light on, it should be off when you turn the key to the start position.

Getting no codes in the computer just will not turn over other than when I jumped the red and purple wires at the tds relay

Not everything will throw a code, I suspect that it's probably not the VATs because that would show a code. Again you have to verify that you have 12v across the TDR coil, that's the yellow and yellow/black stripped wire the 12v will only be present when the key is held in the start position, it could also very well be that the TDR has failed.
