You need to carry the car somewhere and have them diagnose what is wrong. It may not be the PCM. The PCM has nothing to do with your radio, but the BCM has everything to do with everything in the car. Just don't throw parts at it, let someone figure what is wrong.

I sent it to maxie price chevrolet.I got it back today.745.00 later it is fixed.It was not the pcm.There was a shortage in the bcm and the computer,and would you believe the radio.I radio must be replaced.It was causeing a shortage.They left unplugged.It runs good.It just brought this car two weeks ago.
Thanks for the advise

Did you buy the car from a dealer if so contact them if not, then you are out the money and will need to purchase a radio. You can save money buying from a individual but these are risks we all take.
Good Luck.
