All sorts of warnings (PCM Fail?)

[Birdheezy]

Hey all,

Haven't driven my 2019 ranger in a week or so, went out and fired it up and got all of the following errors. I shut the truck off, fired it back up and same thing. I'm about to go disconnect the battery and see what happens after, but seeing as there are multiple fails, i'm guessing a single computer has died. Any thoughts?

turns out when you don't drive for a week, the squirrels find a warm place to nest.

I hate Squirrels... just rats with a fancy hair-do.

OUCH!

Clean thru that harness. That wasn’t very neighborly ?

Speaking from experience your comprehensive auto policy should cover this. Happened 2 years ago to my wife’s truck and they got every bit of important wiring in her truck. The engine had to be pulled and a whole new harness run. Insurance billed $7500.

holy smokes one week and they did all that! lil bastard. if they did that in my area I would be in the yard with my 22 about 8 hours a day thinning them out...

One issue I won't have. We weirdly don't have squirrels in our subdivision. 1998 it was acres of bean Field with no trees. Hawks of all kinds and bald eagles are very common. The squirrels stayed well clear of the area. In 1999, they scraped off all the black soil and built a few hundred houses. Now it's 2022, we have trees but still no squirrels. Enough rabbits to film a remake of Watership Downs but no squirrels.

WOW, the amount of damage a tree rat can do!

This what I dread every year I return to Idaho. To find that a squirrel or mouse has setup camp in either the tractor, razor, or decided some form of electrical was tasty. I do patch the occasional hole in the insulation in the barn that mice grab for bedding.

I understand why one of my neighbors is constantly complaining to his wife to not feed the squirrels and chipmunks.

I do secretly send her bags of feed to keep them on his property.
