1999 Dodge Ram 1500 Idle air control system malfunction
Hhhhmmmm......
If you aren't getting any voltage at the pins at the IAC connector..... either the PCM is bad, or the wires are.
IAC are in pins 10, 11, 19, and 20, of connector 1. (black one)
Break out your arm with three elbows...... and see if you are getting voltage at the PCM, with everything hooked up, and key on. I know those connectors like to corrode, and cause all sorts of havoc.
You could pull the connector, and insert some short pieces of wire into the cavities (from the back side) so you have an easier time of it when testing.....
Or, if you get really desperate,
I am not all that far from you. (about a two hour or so drive, on reasonable roads, something which appears to be in short supply around here at the moment....) Come and see me.

Check continuity to ground on those four wires, and also, between the wires.
PCM has a couple grounds, most are right there near it.
Bring a couple gallons of kerosene.
That way, we can be warm while we play.

Ok, so apparently, the wiring harness checks out.
With the connector unplugged, you get power at those pins? But, plug the connector in, and power goes away? You already replaced the PCM once haven't you? Given you have the same symptoms after the replacement..... I don't think it would be the PCM, although, it certainly DOES look that way.
Ok, on C1, pins 4, 31, 32 are grounds. Make sure they really are.
