Truck won't start
All the electronics work, lights, radio, etc but it won't start. I was trying to wire up my e-fan, I was letting the truck warm up to set the temp and it just shut off. Now it won't start back up, it doesn't even try to turn over. The truck had been running for like a minute before it died too. Any suggestions of what to check would be great, I've already checked the starter relay and its fine.

Here is what its doing. I checked the fuses, I'll go over them again. The ABS light and parking brake light come on when I try to start it

On all 01+ if the theft light is blinking it means in the on position it's saying there is no key in the ignition, not reading the chip in the keys.
I suggested running out and pulling the battery leads then touching them together for about 30 seconds to clear the ECU. Put them back on turn key to on position and hold for about 10-15 seconds, in this time it'll let you know if you can start it by the theft light blinking. Crank it over.
The theft light will always blink when the key is off. But the blink he's talking about is the rapid blink with the key in the ignition.

Lighting in my room sucks, caused the shutter speed to slow down and I'm too lazy to get my tripod out lol
