[QUOTE="Zach Bowling, post: 1546843, member: 38469"] Problem solved! I took your advice and checked the LED connections under the cup holders. Lo and behold, both LED lights and housings were corroded to shit, I assume from a spilled drink somewhere in the 37K miles that were driven before I bought the truck used (see pictures below). After cleaning both circuit boards thoroughly with a mixture of water and baking soda (disconnected the battery first), I turned the truck back on and it must’ve been enough to remove the short in the BCM loop because everything came back on and started working like normal again! I noticed one LED had stopped working, but after reassembling, it must’ve been burnt out when I bought the truck used because everything looked as it did before. The good news is if I ever want to fix it down the road, it’s a small wire harness that can be replaced, although I cannot find it at a dealer if anyone knows how to get this part (see part number below). Thank you for the help, easily saved myself ~$400 in dealer repairs for a job that took about an hour and a half to do myself!
