Default Limp Mode

I had some trouble after I jumped my truck (had dead batteries) and now after ive replaced some things its seems to be in limp mode. Looks/feels like its stuck in 3rd gear, and the engine also seems like it wont let me get over a certain amount of boost...
When i jumped the truck I blew my alternator fuse and burnt up my adrenaline. I have replaced and checked all fuses and have new batteries.
I also have no radio, obd port, inside cab lights or cigarette lighter ports.

Is there something else I should look for?? I am having trouble figuring it out from here....
I was hoping to hook up the OBD scanner and be able to clear any codes and get rid of the limp mode problem but like I said its not working....\
any help would be so much appreciated
