When you turn the key to the on position without starting the engine does the check engine light come on?

No, it does not. I was thinking it could be the oil pressure sensor and I was also wondering if there is a fuel pump switch?

Okay, we are getting closer. When you run the codes did any come up? Also, lets check the fuses #12 and #19 to see if they have power with the key on?

Here is a wiring diagram to help you see how the ALDL is wired

Check out the diagrams (below). Please run this test and get back to us.

Cheers, Ken

I do not have a machine to check the codes and I tried to bring it to AutoZone but they said they could not check my codes because I did not have a check engine light on. Is there a machine I can buy to check the codes even though I do not have a check engine light?

I do know that when I put the key in the ignition switch my windows are able to roll down my doors are able to lock and all the lights come on in the inside. I can crank it but it does not pop off, so could it be because there is no power going to the switch?

Was this truck in a flood by chance? It sounds like the PCM is bad. I would do a pin to pin check on the wiring and then try a new PCM a shop may need to program it for you. I would try a used one to see what happens you can get one from a wrecking yard.

And also I was wondering I had a friend look at it and he told me it could be the oil pressure sensor which is not allowed in the fuel pump to kick on or he told me it could be the catalytic converter. So before I replace the computer I was wondering what your thoughts were on this? Personally I think it's the oil pressure sensor.
Well at least that is what I am praying it is, but again I wanted to get your feedback on this.

The engine should at least fire up for a little bit if it were the oil pressure sender. As far as the IPDM it is all about checking the wiring to makes sure it all good. It is difficult to test the computer unless you send it to a re-builder.
