Ok, these are the codes it pulled...
12 - (pointless code)
11 - Timing belt skipped 1 tooth or more from initial learned value, Intermittent loss of either camshaft or crankshaft position sensor, No crank reference signal detected during engine cranking
27 - Injector control circuit
41 - Generator field not switching properly
55 - (pointless code)

For code 11, my guess is its either the crankshaft position sensor or camshaft position sensor... I doubt its the timing chain skipped a tooth. If the ECM doesn't get an input from either of those sensors, it shuts down the ignition and won't let the engine crank.

I'm not familiar with codes 27 and 41, maybe someone else can give some insight.

Lol, it's no problem... that's why we're here. I will say the crankshaft position sensor is one of the hardest sensors to get to. If you replace it youself, the easiest thing to do is remove the inner fender well... there should be about a dozen or so bolts holding it on, and once removed, it makes getting to the CPS a lot easier. I have no way of telling you if its the crankshaft or camshaft position sensor, but I would say replace both, neither cost too much.

27 will be one fuel injector has failed at one point. Usually cause a miss felling. Check all connectors.

41 will be alternator. You may need to replace it. I would suggest disconnect the battery to reset the computer. Then run the truck to running temperature and see what codes come back.

I agree, but she said the truck won't start. I don't think ^ is possible until the problem associated with code 11 is fixed.
