I sent the board, ECM, and key to the ECU Doctors and they replaced the board. It was supposed to be plug and play, but I am having all the same issues- no power locks, no power windows, no keyless entry, and no start. They told me that the harness must be corroded, so I cleaned it several times, but no change.

Tell them that. They've screwed up before.

The immobilizer is under the seat. Which modules did you send out. Was it the Immobilizer, ECU (from Trunk) and key?

I sent all three- the module under the seat, the ECM in the truck, and the key.

One new development that I just noticed. When I push the lock/unlock button on the key, the is the noise from the locks engaging and disengaging, but there was a new noise coming from the passenger side front fender. The noise sounds like something is rattling.
