Hey guys, So I have been through the ringer over the last few days with my truck. Little background information, its a 2020 1500 with 68k miles. Truck has been driving perfectly fine with 0 issues. Well this passed Thursday I went out to get into my truck. Noticed the key fob wouldn't lock or unlock my truck / auto start wouldn't work. Got into the truck and my dash said push break push to start. Absolutely nothing happened. Thought that's weird maybe the battery is dead (replaced the battery in Feb. of this year so it brand-new) So used my other car to try and jumped the truck. Hooked up the jumper cables and absolutely nothing happened. Was just showing press break push to start but nothing. Used the key up against the push to start button as well but nothing.
After about 30min on the jump still nothing would work. I took the jumper cables off and pulled the negative on the battery. I also opened and closed all my doors thinking maybe one of my doors was cracked and it drained the battery. After 5min i put the battery negative back on got in the truck and still nothing. I was sitting in my truck on google looking for answers the keys were in the cup holder. All of a sudden the truck activated and the dash lit up I stepped on the break and pushed start the truck fired up. Ran just fine, then the TPMS sensor light came on along with the check engine light. I went to AutoZone and they said the check engine was for low voltage. I let my truck run for an hour thinking it just needed to charge. Anyways after the truck ran for an hour i turned it off and turned it back on no issues. Drove the truck for the rest of Thursday 0 issues running errands. The TPMS light went off and eventually the check engine light went off.
Drove it all day Friday 0 issues truck ran great. Well Friday night was heading out to a Christmas party. Auto started the truck got in it pushed the start button and immediately the truck threw on every light on the dash I mean every light said to service every system. Truck was sitting for a few hours so it was cold the fans were blowing louder then I have ever heard along with the dash just going crazy. I turned the truck off then it wouldn't turn back on was giving me the same issue as Thursday morning. My first thought was ok maybe the battery is bad. So I took the battery over to O'rilleys they warrantied the battery gave me a brand-new one. Went home put it in and still nothing. Replaced the key fob battery's nothing. Tried both my key fobs nothing. Now the truck wont do anything cant even get it into accessories mode nothing. It just says press break push to start but nothing. The push to start button just flickers. Haven't got the truck to start now since Friday night. Even when the key fob isn't in the truck the message on the dash still said push break push to start. I've tried everything. Wondering if anyone has had this issue? My only other option is to tow it to the dealer tomorrow.
Any advice would be great. I checked all the fuses and relays all were good. No damage from rats or squirrels looked through everything.
