Check all the fuses in the underhood fuse center that are labeled ECM. Are they good?

Do you have a 12v test lite?

Customer replied 1353 days and 14 hours ago.

yes.

Expert:  JHoop replied 1353 days and 14 hours ago.

With the key on, check for voltage at all the ECM fuses. Is there 12v there?

Check the TRANS fuse in the passenger compartment fuse panel. Check for 12v when the key is in run. Make sure the fuse is good.JHoop40050.9012759259

its good. the truck was running good then when I stopped to check the mail i shut it off then got back in to start it and thats when it broke down continued to crank but wouldnt start.

If the check engine lite does not come on when the key is in run, the ECM has no power, or it has failed. HERE are the schematics for the ECM. Find the circuits that supply power and ground to the ECM and make sure the have 12v with the key in run. Make sure all grounds are good. If all chaeck out, the ECM is faulty.

Customer replied 1353 days and 13 hours ago.

how do i replace the ecm?

Have you tested the powers and grounds? HERE is the ECM removal and installation.

There are 2 shown. The # XXXXX your original ECM should correspond with the one you purchase.

Customer replied 1352 days and 10 hours ago.

I will accept your answer once i get the ecm repaired. most likely tomorrow afternoon. hopefully this repairs my problem.

 

i promise your answer will get accepted but i gotta make sure this gets my truck running first.
