Exclamation Need Help With My Jbody!

Yesterday I accidently opened my door without turning off my alarm and it stalled out my motor untill i found out i had to push a button to reset my alarm. After i did that it would start but the Rpms gauge wasnt not working as well as the temp gauge. Most of the warning lights also came on. I am not sure what the problem is. I may have knocked something loose when i was searching for the reset button or it could be something else. Any body have any suggestions?

my remote start pulls shit like that now and then, but you just haveto reset it and wait a minute or two and everything goes back to normal..sounds like you might have a larger problem...fucked up computer or some high-tech bullshit

Reset the PCM. Not sure how to do that on a J-Body as I have never looked at the procedure. But if its anything like the F-body let me know and I can get you the steps.

By the way this is just an idea and a place to start

So far i have tried to disconnect the battery and that didnt work and also i pushed the button under the steering collum which is supposed to reset the alarm but it seems to have fucked something up to the point where when i try to start it turns over then stalls...
