Hello,
You also need to have the MCLR connected to the U2 programer. I did not see it connected in your schematic or discription? Set the config to "HS" and it should work.
I am sure you have seen this page

Power your circuit with an external 5v supply
connect U2 with GND, PGD, PGC and VPP(mclr) to the PIC
