El Mod Help!

So I hooked everything up as per the directions, and nothing... The Led's didnt light.
Ok so this is what it looks like, the 2 sets of yellow and red wired on headed south are for the motors, you can see the switch and deans for the battery. Can you guys take a look and see if there are any glaring problems.
Cheers!

Do NOT run a hot to the small receiver board, you don't need it and I cannot tell by the pictures but I cannot see the hot hooked up at turn the board over show what you did on that side?

This is for a Tiger, the On/off switch is wired the way it came from HL. Yes that is the on/off, of the 3 prongs on the bottom the black and red are running to the far two outside prongs. So they need to be wired next to each other?
Should I take a picture of the bottom side of the boards?
THANK YOU FOR YOUR HELP!!!!

Hey Oliver,
Yes I was checking later and yo do have the junpers right! I still can't see how you have the power hooked up flip it over, and make sure you show how you are connection to the Think tank Booster, and lets go from there! I will check back in later...

Ok, so this is the flip side of the boards. The 2 other shots are of the switch wires attaching to the boards.
The switch red currently connects to the battery plug, then on to the large board. The other black runs to the receiver board. In the picture you will see a red wire coming off the large board with duct tape on the end.... I think its one of the power leads to the smoker.
I wish i hadn't waited over a year to power it back up!!! [:@]

I second this: get rid of the power feel to the receiver board, its not needed as it gets its power through the data cable from the main (HL) board.

On the third picture the red wire is your power wire to the esc board! All the switch is doing is breaking the HOT ( red wire ) connection to your ESC or main board. If you go on the EL Mod site you can download the PDF on the Think Tank Booster K/M.
The very last picture in the lower right had corner give a good picture of how you need to wire the power! BUT look closely the tank that they used had black wires for the hot so it is confusing! You will only need two ground wires off the board & your battery connect into one going to the connection to the Booster! The two hots, One goes to the board and, One to the ON side of the switch! That way when you power your switch ON, both boards get power!
