Did the Prior Owner mention doing any work on the truck other than removing the transmission?

Is there any sign of water intrusion near the fuse box under the dash?

All the systems you mentioned are linked through the GEM.

Does the truck have a keyless entry system? Does it work? Is it aftermarket?
