    I broke a rib while working on an aux fuse panel and left the negative battery terminal disconnected for over a month.
    When I reconnected the truck it turns over but won’t fire. I checked all the fuses under the hood and can’t find a problem. At the moment there are no codes being thrown. However at one time I got the attached message.

    LS1 swap with nitros.
    Stupid questions... is it cranking fast enough? Potential the battery drained a bit over a month of not being used...

    Also - what did you do with the aux fuse panel that may have impacted stock wiring etc?

    Plenty of cranking power. I have disconnected all the connections to the aux fuse panel so I’m sure that’s not it. It seems to be security related.

    Nice to see the TW trolls make an appearance.

    You guys finish the low glow install on your pre runners yet?

    Not a battery issue. Truck turns over, doesn’t fire.

    I had a coughing fit on my lunch break and it snapped. Doctor said I’m the only case under 80 years old he has ever seen.

    Have you measured the voltage both at crank and stationary?

    Damn, that sucks. Hope you don't have further issues like that.

    Have you hooked the battery up to a charger to make sure it's topped up? Like another said, maybe it's just a bit low but still spinning the motor. Worth a shot while checking other things out.

    You don't have rats/mice in your garage do you? Edible (soy-based) wiring can be an issue I've heard...

    I've read there is a "Smart Key deactivation switch" under the steering column? May be worth a check if you have the push-button start.

    Key fobs work. They lock and unlock doors and I can get the engine to turn over.
