That's weird man idk what's going on with that. It has power windows and locks so it may have had a key fab at 1 time and it a security system but I don't see any kind of chip on the key or sensor around the ignition where the key goes into ignition at.. I'm gonna research it more and see if it had a pass lock kinda security on it

It was a behind the scenes issue. Our anti-spam measures thought you were a spammer, and put you in the post moderation group. This is a relatively new system, so, we are still working out the kinks.

I see I see. So I was able to get my hands on a snap on mt2500 scanner and learned a lot about what's going on with my truck. My engine temp sensor was saying it was some crazy -50 degrees off the wall number and another sensor on the tranny is saying the samething and my iac valve is reading a higher volts then it should be I'm going out to remove some wire protection stuff off today and doinging some testing.

Sounds like you needing to replace the temperature sensor and/or check/address the wiring for the sensor.
