Is it a 12V or 24V cummins engine, any codes showing?
What shape are the batteries in?

Did you use a code scanner or just turn the key? I thought if the WTS light is NOT coming on is a sign of a internal memory error in the ECM and is having troubles getting booted up. Unless the bulb is burnt out. Are you sure the new ECM is good Is it getting fuel to the filter? Confirm pressure with a mechanical gauge at the banjo bolt and bleed the pressure off through the top bolts on the filter canister to try to get it started. It very well could be the lift pump. The VP44, injector pump, will run once started but it usually doesn't pull enough to get fuel to itself to start. But it will pull fuel once started.

Well I will say I had lots of fun with wiring issues in my 98 Ram.
But a bad ignition switch won't suprise me.

some people on the internet are talking about the connector corroding between computers on the firewall. Worth a try to look at it. I know the ECM was my problem when I had that issue.
