does unplugging a connecter at the BCM with the battery connected cause damage?

Not lasting and usually only when the ignition is on.

Amateurs assume, don't test and have problems; pros test first. I am not a free install service.
Read the installation manual, do a search here or online for your vehicle wiring before posting.

Check every fuse in the vehicle with a digital volt meter. Unplugging the BCM with the ignition ON is never good. It is possible you have blown a fuse in the process as circuits will try and pull power through other circuits when this happens. It is also possible you have damaged the BCM.

I might try disconnecting the CanBuss wires. Maybe something is corrupting the data and that's why it won't start or communicate with the scanner.

found a blown fuse-truck starts but give me a code for ambient temperature sensor.gauge is reading -40 degrees and both front door locks and power windows dont work from master switch(rear windows work from master switch)..fuse for driver door module is good.temp sensor is in driver door mirror so this sounds like the BCM isnt getting any signals from the drivers door module.
