Yesterday my truck ran fine. I cameout this morning and, without the keys in the vehicle, the oil pressure light was on, service engine soon light was on and the odometer was on with all dashes. I tryed to start, battery appears to be fine, it just would not turn over. Anyone have any ideas?

You might have triggered the theft system when you opened the door. why the horn is not going off and light flashing. Try unlocking the door manually or with the key less entry fob. make sure you try to start the truck with the key you use not the one on the kitchen hook. Still won't start? Tow truck trip to the dealer with ALL of your keys and remotes to get them reprogrammed. Any Lightening in your area lately? I had a truck struck by large voltage surge and it was quite a job replacing computers until the truck would start and stay running.

The truck lost communication with the home planet:-)
Nope , sounds like it lost communication with the PCM though... Usually when those trucks lost it, one of the tale tale signs is the odometer in dashes
My guess is to check all fuses for blown fuses and if none found ,clean the connectors that is behind a plastic cover on some trucks that is to the right of the battery (looking from the front of the truck to the firewall)... It's a bracket and has 4 connectors, 2 big ones and 2 small ones... connectors need to be cleaned (one sign is to wack it and see if truck starts now)... If that doesn't fix it. needs to be towed in to a mechanic shop and find out what is going on

If the battery is low, usually from a bad alternator, these things will happen.
Try charging the battery. It may appear alright, but, if it won't turn over, the battery should be suspect.
Hope this helps.
