What has been done to the vehicle. The radio theft information is separate from the vehicle theft system. The radio would need to be programmed with the vehicle VIN, and it should not lose this with battery disconnect. The windows would not disable either. You have an electrical concern of various circumstances, that no normal diagnostic procedure that I can offer, will address. You could also have multiple concerns that may, or may not be related to a common cause.
