dead truck

I have a 2002 ford f250 with the 7.3l diesel. I recently installed a ts performance chip. On my pcm.And after i first tried all the different stages i didnt like how my transmission was shifting hard. So i contacted the manufacturer and he told me they could reprogram the chip for smoother shifting.*So i removed the pcm and removed the chip. But when i went to reinstall the pcm i bent one of the pins on the pcm some how. So i took it back out and straightened the pin with pliers . i reinstalled it back in the truck. Only to find when i reattached the battery cable i have no power to anything ignition ,horn, lights,Cigarette lighter etc. So my question is if the pcm is bad, or not contacting properly due to the pin being messed up. would that have anything to do with the lights and horn and all that? I suspect its the gem bsm or Vsm. Wichever one my truck has. But really not sure because everything worked fine just 20 min b4.

Without properly grounding yourself prior to touching the pin, it is entirely possible that static electricity has damaged some of the internal circuitry.
You might check to ensure you haven't damaged any other pins...
