(scroll down for tl:dr)
Just a bit of back story, I got my pcmforless tune, doing their loaner program. When I installed the loaner pcm, I did the security relearn and everything went fine for the week that I had it. I got my original pcm back last night, swapped them, it started right up, and I didn't really think twice to check everything since it was late and I was tired. On my way to work this morning, I wanted to listen to the radio, noticed it was off (off as in, wasn't even displaying the time (I've got the nav/bose unit btw)) I had to press the power button twice just to get it to show the normal "off" screen, and that went away in a matter of seconds. When I got to a stoplight, I put it in park, turned it off, pulled my key out and put it back in, and started it back up, the radio still didn't work, and I noticed that it didn't make the normal "beep" that it makes when inserting or removing the key. I was checking for other things that weren't noticeably working and also found that the green light for my drl's wasn't illuminated, nor was the amber light showing they were disabled. I switched them to the on position, the green light turned on, and then switched them back to the automatic position and it went off again, finally turning on a few seconds later. When I noticed that, I tried the radio again, but still no luck...
edit: Also forget to mention that both times the battery neg cable was disconnected before any of this work was done.
tl:dr?
did pcmforless loaner program. Loaner pcm worked after security relearn.
After original pcm is reinstalled, starts right up, but drls, radio (with nav/bose), and the "beep" when the key is insert/removed don't work...
