does it blow out huge clouds of white smoke when ure cranking it? if so try a buzz test on the injectors. i had that same problem and it was bad injectors that wouldnt let it fire.
would just crank and blow white smoke

Sounds like you might have a loose UVCH(Under Valve Cover Harness) Search 50 cent mod.

What schematic would you want?

Here is a tech bulletin for checking the resistance at the IDM.

GB_Tech_Bulletin_103_Ford IDM_Module_Replacement.pdf

Also here is the location of the IDM, inside the inner fender directly behind the F-X50 badge, obviously you do not have to remove the fender to get to it.

no prob bud. best of luck. but like he said the harness for the injectors could also be loose. fyi the wireing harness for the injector / g.ps is also the valve cover gasket. but the buzz test will indicate broken/ disconnected wires

Look Very close to Both the connectors. Clean them good. sometimes you will burn a pin in the plug it's self.
