The first nine fault codes shouldn't prevent the engine from starting. Most of them likely set due to the underlying problem, and will not need any attention.

The "Lost communications" fault codes point to a failed Body Computer, but there's two things to try first. Check the three fuses with the blue arrows pointing to them. If they're all okay, disconnect the negative battery cable for a few minutes. Even better, when it's disconnected, touch the negative cable to the positive one to insure all the computers' memory circuits are fully-discharged. Reconnect the cable, then see if the engine starts.

No luck. Did you see where I said all 3 engine control fuses are testing positive for ground with test light?

Sorry about 3 pics. The last one is the one I wanted to show hose 3 fuses yest negative ground.

Body control mod is one behind glove box I think. I going to pull it out and look at inside it. Or not right now. Its freezing cold out. Lol

I'm thinking unplug the BCM and test those fuses again for ground short and see if its gone.

How did you perform those tests? To check for a ground, the test light's clip has to be on the battery's positive post, then the light will light up when you probe a point that is grounded. I suspect you found places that will check to ground. We know there aren't going to be three separate problems develop all at the same time. Also, if there was something shorted on one of those circuits, that fuse would have blown.

I put test light on positive and check the fuses and all 3 light came on. Only those 3. I just had a hunch that T least one was going to light up but all 3 did. Light came on then slowly dimmed but remained on.

What you're doing is powering up those circuits with the current that is flowing through the test light. The light dims once the capacitors in the driver circuits inside the various computers charge up. You're seeing the same current surges that often cause fuses to blow for "no reason" when the disconnected battery is reconnected.

Everything points to a failed Body Computer.

First I'd disconnect the negative battery cable to see if the Body Computer has locked up. We jump to defective computers too quickly and blame them for everything, but there was such a case in the early 1990's, and GM did have a lot of Engine Computer problems in the late 1980's to mid 1990's. Disconnecting the battery did temporarily solve a lot of those problems, which is why we became accustomed to doing that. It's less of a problem today, but it's something simple we don't want to overlook.

I did that with the last step when you told me to disconnect the negative cable and then touch the positive to drain the memory for the computer.

Body Computer.

The alternative is to use a scanner to look at what the computers are seeing and responding to. That will let you command the computers to do things such as turn relays on and off. That will show if they can control them.

Shame on me. I thought I posted the location already. Sorry, but it appears I did not.

It's listed as "behind the upper right side of the instrument panel".
