My truck wouldn't start this morning because it thought I was trying to steal it.:mad:

Codes where some sort of Anti-theft and class 2 data link, I think there was something about the BCM was mismatched too.

Long story short I ended up reflashing with the Theft control disabled and it is warming up right now. This would have sucked if I would have been at work without the laptop.

Have any of you had this happen before or is it dealer time.:mad: :mad: :mad: :mad:

Have been there before, did pretty much the same thing except I was in Forth Worth Texas and I luckely had my laptop and cable along!!
The truck has started fine ever since I don't know what caused it exactly if it was something to deal with unlocking the doors with the keyless entry, and how i tried to start it while the security light was on. No problems since it was disabled.

Mine has done the same thing lots of times. Does it almost every time I do a full reflash. I just have to do the VAT relink and everything works normal afterwards. Give that a try. Don't know what causes it, It just happened out of the blue once and every since its been hit and miss.

I'm going to try and enable the anit-theft when I get home tonight and see if I can get it to repeat. If it does then I'll do the VAT thing and see if it works.
