Alright fellas gonna pull the hair out now. There is no power to the coils with key on or engine cranking. Also I tried another scanner(gentech obd)this time and it still will not communicate with the truck. I checked pins a2 and a22 at the computer and they have power. Think I may need a new computer? What do you all think? Thanks a ton for all replys!

Swap the ASD relay with the horn relay, and see what happens.

This is the V-10, right?

Ok, yank the asd relay, and verify you are getting power TO it. Should be 12 volts on pin 30 whether the ignition is on or not. (Fuse 4 in the PDC.)

If ya got power there, put a jumper between pin 30, and pin 87. Should have power at the coils now. See if it will start.

Trace the wires from the PDC to the coils then. Do you get power at the injectors?
