Help, 6.0 Died w/ theft disabled code thrown

Hi, really need some help here, our 04 Excursion w/ 115,000 miles started up this morning, ran great about 15 miles, made a stop, started & drove 2 blocks and then when returned, cranks great but no fire. Engine was still almost at operating temperature, put Diablo Predator into diagnostic mode and found multiple codes, ( I was too stupid to write them all down, now too senile to remember) one of which related to theft detected mode, engine disabled.

Others included # 8 cylinder power inbalance, another I think might have related to fuel pressure inadequate.

Any suggestions of what I should look for prior to taking to dealership would be greatly appreciated, I was in a hurry to reprogram back to factory tune and I erased the codes thinking with the greatest of optimism that I could fool the engine into making another go at it without need for a tow. Please help with your suggestions, the fuel was not gelling, and no moisture was detected in the filter. thanks

Greg

first check your fuses. there is a 20 amp fuse that controls the anit theft tranciever circuit and the maf sensor. its the fuse box inside by the way. check them with a test light, key in the on posistion.
