What's the issue, why do you think the PCM is defective?
Inquiring minds want to know ...

I started the truck saturday morning and it ran for about 3 minutes and died like someone turned off the key. when I tried to restartit I didnt get any of the normal wrning light check and no WTS light. Next I got out my trusty smart phone and did some research with you all, I checked fuse # 22, its good. I tried tried two different scanners, whatever Autozone has and then my freinds snap-on and neither one of them would talk to the truck so I figured it must be the computer.

Its been a long summer with this truck. Blown motor at 330k miles bringing the boyscouts home from camp. Got a newto me motor out of florida and it runs great but a couple weeks later the water pump went out, then the AC clutch and now this.

I appreciate any help I can get from Y'All

The obd plug is powered by the same fuse for cigarette lighter. Might check that a snap on unit should communicate with your truck. Good Luck
