    I would go with a PCM problem honestly. If it was working before the key ON/battery disconnect problem, then the PCM is what is screwed up...

    Rhetorical question....maybe but did you replace the connector? Did you run a multimeter over anything. I've replaced more than I count and from the tank on over 90 percent is the connector, ground. Your dealership guy is right.
