@blue62 - when you made this comment about the car not turning over being related to my work on my HU, I couldn't imagine how - but you were correct. Before I figured out you were correct, I tested the clutch pedal switch again, tested the battery, which is only 3 years old and tried jumping it from another car to rule out the battery. I then hooked up my Durametric again and got the codes Airbad B05 - 1, Alarm i32 - 25 W lead, and Alarm i48-25 short circuit to B+. Based on this, I found this thread:

Based on this thread I checked fuse E1 - it was difficult to see that it was blown, but it was. I replaced the fuse and the car started right up!
When I was replacing the HU with the Bluetooth module plugged in, I had a heck of a time getting the HU back in place. I shoved it in and the Bluetooth no longer worked. I removed the HU again and saw that all the wires for the Bluetooth module ripped out of the plug. My guess is this is what fried that fuse, but when the next break in the rain happens, I'll put the head unit out again and check all the wires.
I'm in the Bay Area and I was really concerned that the alarm got wet with all the rain we have been getting (although everything felt dry in the car).
What is the easiest way to guide the head unit wires while you are sliding in the HU? Is it taking off the side panels in the footwell or removing the plastic panel to the left of the HU/HVAC?

If you have an "open circuit" code then you most likely have a wire disconnected or the battery is disconnected.
Go back in and triple check your work. the problem is in there.
Also check your battery connections....connection of the negative cable at the body.....and the positive connection in the little box by your power steering filler neck.
Clear the P1602 code and see if it returns.
