If he had just had something done to it (alarm installed) that would be the first place to start troubleshooting. Take it back to the place that did the work and have them look at it. I know in some Chevy's, the circuit board on the a/c controls is exposed, so you have to tape up the antenna adapter when installing a stereo so nothing shorts. I don't remember if this applies here or not, but that may be a possibility.

Also, check with the dealer service department for any applicable service bulletins since the truck is fairly new.

My ex once told me I have a perfect face for radio.
