Default

Alright, ordered a pcm from solopcms and it came in fast. Ordered Friday morning and it was here Monday afternoon. Went to the dealership and replaced the pcm in the lot, truck started right up. Rough idle at startup, it kinda hesitates but runs good after that. Guessing this is just a learning period for the pcm. If it continues I'll look for a loose wire. Truck is up and running now so hopefully all is well.

Default Check for Fuel Pump Relay or ASD

For Garry Burrell - that hits his fuse box to get his truck started. Sounds like a bad fuel pump relay or a bad relay that is called Automatic Shutdown Device (ASD). It is a cheap fix (less than $10) if you can isolate the problem. I took mine apart and found the relay contacts were making a "point contact" istead of a broad-surface contact. Where it was touching, it was slightly burned.
