Short version - I stripped my 2006 LBZ down to a bare frame - and proceeded to install a solid front axle, redo the rear suspension, relocate the batteries to the rear, do some minor bolt on upgrade improvements under the hood (I already had compounds, I updated them a bit....)
I'm just now getting it together to fire for the first time - I hook up the batteries and I immediately get a check engine light and the turn signal indicators on the dash light up solid. If the computer is unplugged - then I just get the turn signal indicators.
I have no lights inside the cab, no power to the radio, windows and locks don't work. I've pulled the fuse box back apart just as a double check - no corrosion and no real way that I see I could have mixed up the plugs. I haven't found any corrosion anywhere - I haven't been able to locate any rubbed of chaffed wires.
The only changes in the electrical system that are recent - is the relocation of the batteries - they are mounted in the back - 1/0 wire all the way to the front to a pair of terminals I mounted inside the frame - I cut the OEM battery cables for the passenger side and connected them to these terminals.
The truck has an after market remote start system on it - that was installed when I bought the truck new (or shortly after....) - I've looked quickly at it and can't see anything that would cause issues, but I am going to double check everything.
I've been going after this all afternoon and am getting frustrated with it.... I'd like to think that I have a pretty good understanding of this thing. Any ideas or known issues that resemble this would be awesome if someone could point me in that direction. I've been searching and not coming up with much.
