Thumbs down Fuel Injection Module

Hey Guys-My Dad just called me from work and I was informed that his fuel injector module is in need of some repair or replacement. I've found a few places around the country (all down south) that do these repairs. I was just wondering if you guys new about any places up here in the New England Region around MA that can do this job RIGHT at an OK cost. Thanks Guys. -Taylor

Thanks guys. You are too awesome.

I agree on the Dorman stuff, though. Made in China and absolute junk. Besides, with that swap out, you only get the power board side 'addressed' without any review of the logic board. We work on both sides of the module and provide tuning services as well. Further, modules don't leave our shop with out passing two different bench tests followed up with a physical install in a 6.0 just ot make absolutely certain that the proper signalling out to all eight injectors is occurring as intended.

The result is rock solid.

Taylor - let us know if we can help you out! We're at 515-897-4459 if you want to chat through the options.

Question

Thanks for the recommendations guys! After doing some more "investigations," we realized that the code for the FICM came up the day after my Dad plugged in his block heater for 1 1/2 hours because it was 17 degrees out. So, could the block heater have caused the FICM to go, or, is this just an unfortunate series of events? Thanks guys! -Taylor

No relation? Huh... Now, I read on FICMRepair.com that bad batteries and alternators can cause the FICM to go bad. If I replace a bad alternator, is it too late to save the FICM, or is it too late?

Once the FICM begins showing voltage under 45 it's toast.

What OBD code is it throwing?

With a FICM failure it would be wise to load test each battery seperately and check alternator voltage during GP cycle and after warm-up.

Codes:
1. P0261
2. P0264
3. P0267
4. P0270
5. P0273
6. P0276
7. P0279
8. P0282

Each code says that one of eight fuel injectors has low pressure. We've gone through and done fuel filters. The light went out for five days, but it came back on-same codes. Changed the fuel filters again. The light went out for 11 miles-came back on. We are assuming based on what we've read, that the FICM is where we're heading. For all I know, it might not be the FICM, but, I don't know what else it could be. (My Dad is an "old-school" guy and believes if it's getting fuel, it should run-he loves this truck more than anything and it already seems like more trouble than its worth in his opinion)
