Check your battery. First, clean the posts and cable ends. Make sure they are in good shape. Check the battery to make sure it's got a good charge to it and can pass a load test.

If all of that checks out, then it could be something with the theft deal. I don't have any experience with that on the older trucks.. (I don't have any experience with it on my NEW TRUCK either for that matter...)

Good luck!

Mitch

I agree with Mitchf150, get that battery checked out ( probably needs replaced) 1st. when my battery took the big nose dive a few years back, my gauges and interior lights when bizzerk too. Not a lot of warning either.
