FICM

I'm having intermitent no start problem , when it happens the only way to start is spraying some fluid on the intake .
The voltimeter show error when I check the voltage on pin 4 with 2 differents FICM . the engine runs great with no codes.
I'm suspecting something on power supply , the logic fuse is ok and there is power. does somebody know how to test the power on the 12 way connector?
thanks for help

If your voltmeter shows error, you have something on it set wrong. Wrong probe location or out of range.

P2623 indicates an IPR circuit failure or a stuck IPR valve

Not sure if it sets off a code or not, but my 05 6.0 intermitant no start was a bad cam position sensor eventually went out totally. priced out from $30 to $130
