Was that screw you checked on the FICM the one closest to the driver side Fender???
You shouldnt be getting 24.7 volts at any of the Screws.
theres three diffrent readings for the Ficm power
1. FICM Main Power= 48 volts
2. Ficm Vehicle power= 12 volts or B+ voltage
3. FICM Lodgic Power= 12 volts or B+ voltage
so with that said and the DVM was on the right setting and also Being tested at the proper screw for FICM Main Power and you got 24.7 volts the ficm is toast!
you should have 48 volts at all times during KOEO and starter crank and also while Runing
Did you follow this test procedure

A SGII makes this easy and its good to keep an eye on it from time to time FWIW

THIS HAS BEEN A LONG TRIP, Thanks Blades35 for the codes for the SGII. It is the best thing I've seen since peaches on ice cream. As of today this is where I am. The loss of power is caused by the stereo, maybe the harness. Not a priority at this time. The FICM voltage loss was due to a poor connection at the back plug.
According to the scan gaugeII these are my readings:
FICM: 12vdc main, 48vdc koeo, 47.5 cranking
IPR: 14.4% koeo, 84% cranking
NEW ICP: 0psi koeo, 388psi cranking
I have not had a PO263(#1 inj contrite/balance) since I replaced the pigtail on the ipr and repaired a chafed wire by the oil filter base. I could not have made it this far without FTE and members like Blades35, Bismic, npccpartsman, 69cj just to name a few. I will check back tomorrow after church to see where you guys think I need to go from here. Our God is an awsome God. God Bless you all
