The garmin should have a nav button or other way to get it to start navigating a course or to a waypoint. That should start broadcasting a course to steer signal. I don't know about the wiring specifically so I have to assume you followed the manuals for the autohelm and garmin and matched the input/output of each. Of course they both have to be the same protocal (nmea 0183 or 2000 or seatalk or whatever).
