Any Ideas why?

Be sure you have a good connection, especially gnd.
Be sure you pull sop2 to vcc and reset to gnd to reboot into UART mode.
If this is not working use a different computer or UART device.

How you wired everything?

That’s a big one to check, It’s very common for people to forget that you have to reverse TX/RX on the UART device side, otherwise communication won’t happen.
