I need help

Ok, my 2000 7.3 PowerStroke excursion has stopped running. I was on my way home and the motor lost power and stopped running. I gave it a hour and started it again it sounded like it does when it has run out of fuel. Luckily I was close to the house and was able to limp it home. I ran the diagnostics and it said my 2,4,6,8 glow plugs where bad??? I was thinking the uvc harness? But I am being told it may be the injector control moduel. Or the IDM? Any help in this matter would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

buy gold

You'll probably get faster answer in 7.3 PS forum.
Good luck.

A whole bank of glowplugs don't suddenly go bad...your glow plug control module is bad...

It's the silver box on the passenger side with the black and green connectors going to it.

Check eBay or partsguyed you'll get it way less than the dealer's price.
