The key fob, door lock buttons, interior lights, door buzzer, and headlights only work when the truck is running. When it is shut off none of the above will work. This all happened at the same time. I also lost power to the stereo which is direct wired (power) to the battery. Any ideas???

I was on track with you until you said you lose power to the radio which is wired directly to the battery. Does this only happen when the key is shut too?

Other than that, I was going to have you check the body control module (BCM).

Let me know about the radio and if this all happened at the same time.
