I believe so. I ran the “on demand test” for the BCM on forscan. Then did the module reset. I will try it again and see if it changes anything.

Update: ran the “on demand self-test” no codes
ran the BdyCM module reboot successfully
ran the “on demand self-test” again no codes

Edit - It bothers me that none of the antennae appear to be working. Each antenna has its own circuit within the BCM so I would think that a single antenna failure should trip a DTC but the others should still work. Can you open the tailgate from the button? If so, the tailgate antenna is working.
I can open the tail gait with x2 press on the fob. I’m perplexed as hell. Maybe the receiver in the roof went bad?

edit: could it be as simple as the truck battery going bad but not showing bad yet?

That is not what I wanted to know. Can you open it from the button switch on the tailgate? The fob uses a different system to communicate with the BCM using the RTM (Radio Transceiver Module) mounted in the rear of the roof. It does not surprise me at all that you can open the tailgate with the fob since you can lock/unlock the doors and remote start with the fob. The RTM is obviously working properly.

ahh I see my bad. No I cannot open the tailgate by pressing the button on the tailgate with the key in my pocket.

Update: the frequency in my RTM says incorrect or not configured. If I edit it I can choose 868Mhz or 434Mhz.

Update 2: switched out the battery on Costco warranty for a brand new one. Installed and rest the BMS. Still have the same issue.

Found some audio wires from the previous owner sub setup I believe. Any chance this could be causing the issues?

I also replaced the intelligent access antenna in the tailgate but the issue remains. I cannot unlock or lock the truck with IA and when trying to use the push to start I get a “no key detected” error. Luckily I can put the Fob in the cupholder slot and start and drive with it there.

im thinking to maybe replace the transceiver in the headliner. Any input/help is appreciated.
