No restart

I was drivin the ole 7.3 to college today and all the sudden it died no start which i been paranoid of all the no starts on here lately, truck has a rpm signal, good icp and ipr but it has idm codes present on both banks i pulled the drivers side valve cover and it was plugged in and looked ok but when i try to do a buzz test none of the injectors make a sound im thinking the idm is bad does this sound right to yall? Any suggestions? Thank u

By any chance did you have a P1298 or P1670 code as well?

Inability to run the buzz test does bring the IDM into question. Have you already tried swapping the IDM relay with the blower motor relay and check your fuses?
