LB7: Truck wont start help!

May need that "security re-boot thing". IIRC, you would try the start it for 15 sec then let the key return to the run position (without turning it off), leave the truck (or sit in it if you like) and let it be for about 1/2-3/4 hr or so (until the security light stops flashing or cycling in the dash and it should stay solid showing a red battery in the indicator window there). Then you turn it off for about 15mins and do it again 2 more times. It takes a little while unfortunately. If its done right, it should start up after the 3rd time. I don't explain things so good some times so I hope you can understand this a have some luck with it and this works.

Well was in the process of doing the cycle and looked at my fuel filter housing which has been cracked for two years, messed with the bleeder screw, it broke and fuel gushed out. so now im gonna have to at least fix that.
