In bold is the key item here. The PCM is bad. The fuel pumps should never stay on all the time with the key in the run position unless the engine is running. Your last statement about not being able to pull codes is another symptom pointing towards a bad computer.

Pull out the PCM, open it up. Look for signs of the capacitors leaking or burn marks. A very common problem on these trucks. Sometimes you can replace the capacitors if the damage from the leaking electrolyte is not too bad.

don't know about your junk yard but mine charges $20 for a PCM... Might be easier to pull a spare frome the JY... Just a thought...
