We just had a pretty big rain storm come through. Didn't last long enough though. My corn is THIRSTY. But don't worry.. the barn fridge is full of beer.

Dang see what happens when I take a day away from the forums.........Sorry Jimmy. I sent a message, and just left you a voicemail.

Sound like the EBP sensor went out to me. My 05 did the same thing the day after I got back from Boston after buying it. Hopefully it's just that. If so, easy fix and not too expensive.

Nice Rich, hope that's all it is too! Guzzle has a good write up on it.

Thank you all for the numerous calls and texts...I'm feelin' the love of FTE!

The dealer can't see the truck until late Tues more than likely Wed. I've got a repaired FICM all lined up in the event it is in fact the FICM that died. I'g going to attempt to fix mine and put it in the glove box so this doesn't happen to me again. If I buy one form another truck, does the dealer have to do anything to it or can I simply plug it in and go?

I've been scouring FTE and ps.org about the subject. It looks like any FICM works, 03-07, but there are 4 screw and 7 screw FICMs. The difference is probably the strategy...I had the most desirable strategy on my FICM, and it'll cost me $75 to get the strategy changed if it needs to be.

I just read 3 on FTE that did a swap Jimmy. Might need it reprogrammed, might throw a code. Still run though. Best of luck, you got my number.
