Default 02 ram problem after dead battery

Hoping someone out there can help me. The battery in my 02 ram went dead today, after jumping I now have no blinkers, brake lights, and the headlights stay on all the time when the truck is running. Also the abs light light is on now. I have the checked the small fuses under the hood and they are fine. I talked to the dealership and they said they have never heard of this before. I would appreciate any info. Thanks

Tried that but no luck. The truck is at the dealership right now and they say it has something to do with the front control module. They have never seen this either, so I bet they rip me off.

Default Sounds like a BCM>>>>>>

Body Control Module.

This problem is not too uncommon starting out with your battery first going dead from the drain and then going flat *** haywire!

Check into the BCM. Im 75% sure thats your problem.

Cheers!
