well - here's a twist....
driving - everything works - as long as my foot is on the gas pedal. once I pull my foot off - everything dies - the radio volume/power, the door locks, the airbags, the blind spot, the ac ...etc - I touch the gas - everything works.

even when parked and not running - the door locks don't work - I push the gas - the door locks work....

what in the evil is going on......

Nope - coincidentally new battery two weeks ago.

I dig into the accelerator - unplugging the one connector - made no difference.

So I grabbed and moved the cables coming out of the top (no connectors in sight) and sure enough - it’s fix…..

For now - something is obviously loose/kinked

Check for loose battery connections (especially if you had someone else do the install), what is charging system voltage at? If nothing else maybe an all module reset?

Here's was one of the funny moments.

Truck is off.
Driver's door open.
the unlock/lock buttons on the door not working.
I lean over a barely push the accelerator.
the unlock/lock buttons work.
- same with the radio on/off knob/volume/knob, AC controls, air bag readiness, blind spot, .... all start working.

let off the accelerator - everything dead.

so that's what lead be to look at the wiring around the accelerator.

what are the 2 most recent mods, updates, changes or maintenance?

That doesn’t mean it’s a good battery, or that you don’t have something else compromising the battery. Did you reset the BMS after replacing the battery?

Well - if the thought was - battery weak and when I step on the gas the alternator makes up for additional voltage/amperage - see in my last post

Same behavior when the truck was turned off. everything dead, slight push on the accelerator pedal - everything works. Again - truck off.
