run a dehumidifier inside the truck. Crack the windows ever so slightly, and let it run. It will dry most everything in the cabin
 
seat are removed, carpet removed. engine oil replaced, tried to start it- it runs a sec and stops- maybe plugs should be cleaned and dried!

If you were that deep, everything should be cleaned and dried. I would drain ALL fluids. You're basiclly starting over.
 
I would also unplug and dry all electrical connectors. Hunting down erratic electrical connection glitches is no fun. Well, OK, that's not true. It is fun for the weirdoes among us :D , but it can be very time-consuming.
 
thanks for replies! engine's air intake sucked water during dive time: i cleaned water/wet from inside of engine/ chaged oil... finally it started and did not find/notice any rattling from engine,,, now i have vsc track, vsc off warning lights along with ABS, vgrs warning lights on permanently and brake(rear) is locking; should i open brake pads.. ?
thanks in advance.
 
Sounds like your ABS controller or connectors may be damaged. Try pulling apart all the connectors and cleaning them, if that does not do it might be looking at a new ABS contrl. Also if you think any water got in brake fluid, have it flushed, maybe should have it flushed for good measure.
May have mud in parking brake, causing rear wheel locking up.
