Thanks for all the input and ill post the post op results after they drain my wallet.

I agree the blinking light on the radio/stereo is just a fake anti theft light. I have one on my Matrix..........however the "THEFT" light in the instrument cluster that is flashing. Is it flashing every 2 seconds or is it flashing rapidly when the truck is off....................also check for silly things like the glove box light staying on. etc..............to bad you have to bring it to the "dealer" not all of them are "Pros"...some are "Cons"..
