Default car is not starting B16

Ok i just swaped in an obd1 B16 in my crx and my car is not starting it was turning over and that is all that it was doing my check engine light wont go off either. At first it wasnt turning over then i changed the location of the ground and it started to turn over but now it isnt even turning over anymore any help would be very appreciated.

Make sure the grounds are CLEAN, not just connected. If you have a solid CEL, you most likely have a problem with the power/ground to the ECU, or a problem with the ECU itself. If just swapped in an OBD0 PW0 or PR3, I'm pretty sure the connector pinout is different than your stock pinout, even though the conenctors are the same, so that may be an issue also.
