Battery Gauge is stuck in the middle also the fuel gauge is stuck I locked the doors with the remote because nothing in the truck would work all I know is the horn blew and the tails flashed didn't Check to see if it actually locked but had to go to work.

Im still going with a dead battery, or one of the terminals on your battery is loose. Try checking them.

Ok I'll check the terminals when I get off work. The ignition fuse makes sense to which fuse it that do you know?

yup....loose or dirty. Make sure you clean the terminals really well before you hook it back up.

It would be loose if anything. I should also mention its been happening for about 2 weeks only sometimes I would go to start it, it would click start then my radio would be reset and have to reprogram my presets.

I'm betting it's the battery. They will crap out without warning. Do your lights work? Mine did that to me a few months ago. Took my little boy to daycare came out and nothing. Battery took a dump. It has happened to me with other vehicles as well. Did you try to jump start? That will answer it as well. As far as battery.
