8VETTE7, I started down the path of checking the 'extended list' of items to see what might be causing the Pull Key message (even after the CLB installed). I checked the battery and the result was 12.59V without a load. That meets the minimum of 12.5V, but on the edge. I plan to check the last of the body grounds, but for what it's worth, they all were good for those I did check. Two more to go but for now, I am assuming this is not the issue. I will finish these up next. For kicks, I then started down the fuse test.
Under Hood Fuse Center:
ENG ING1 FUSE# 19 12.2V
INJR 2 FUSE# 18 12.2V
THROTCONT FUSE# 17 12.1V
INJR 1 FUSE# 22 12.2V
PCM FUSE# 16 12.2V
F/PMP FUSE# 13 .022 -->
Instrument Panel Fuse block
BTSI BU Fuse# 21 0V -->
BCM 13 Fuse# 22 .25V -->
IPC Fuse# 19 .25V -->
All should be a about 12V with the key in the ON position. I will do a recheck on these. Note that I actually had to pull the fuse out to test (one side had no voltage while the other contact had a reading...makes sense). If the recheck comes back with the same results, I will finish up the ground test and recheck the battery. If these are good, then the ignition might be the issue. Stay tuned.

Likely step 2 will be that they send you an LMC5-R to try. That usually works for those cars like yours when the LMC5 will not. But on occasion it also will not solve the problem. Then they send you the 5 wire LMC5 that seems to always work when the other two products do not.....
Good luck with your venture..........
