well I put the new PCM in (w/o the chip) and guess what, it doesn't start But my WTS light is back on. All fuses are good. If it has been the batteries this whole time, I'm pushing my truck over a cliff first thing in the morning

After some searching I'm going to give it a little shot of starting fluid along with some new batteries. Hopefully it will do the trick.

It wasn't the batteries So I disconnected all the injectors and had someone crank on it to see if oil was coming out of the oil deflectors which would indicate if a poppet was hung open and nothing came out

So after searching the forums like crazy, I found out that it could be just a loose armature screw Anyone ever experience this before?
