I agree.

So just to summarize:
Car starts and runs, door locks work using the console button, but not the key fob, but when you hit LOCK or UNLOCK on the fob, the turn signals flash. Is that a good summary of where we are at now?

If so, know that the SKREEM talks to the BCM which then tells the CLP/SSM what to do. Fuse 9 (or 13 in some submodels) powers the part of the BCM that enables the SKREEM to talk to the CLP/SSM. I just had this on Saturday, Zach in SC was working on a lady's car that had a wet CLP/SSM. He replaced the CLP/SSM and last 2-3 feet of the wiring harness and had what you have. Fuse 9 fixed it.

I will say this ONE more time: If you changed the CLP/SSM due to water damage, you MUST change the last 2-3 feet of ALL wiring to the CLP/SSM. You CAN NOT clean or salvage those wires/pins because corrosion builds up between the pin and wire - there is NO way to clean that. I've done electronic repair from 1983 to 2011 and there is simply no way. PERHAPS it will work for a few months or a year - but the corrosion will eventually take it's toll. Do it right the first time.
