I got two DTC's, P0100, U0106 this evening after restarting my tuck from leaving a restaurant. Truck was warm and had been running fine all day, my glow plug light on my dash does not light up even when cold since the codes have showed up. Its been in the 20s lately. I disconnected the batteries for 30mins and reconnected them with no results. I downloaded my stock file back with no results. I have now download the H&S programming back and now have DTC's U0074, and P0100, the glow plug communication code "U0106" is no longer showing up. I have checked the wiring on the tuner, the glow plug module, and mass air sensor. I cant find any issues. The truck starts and drives fine other than the DTC's. Any ideas?

I have been over this wiring harness with a fine tooth comb and have come up empty. I will be ordering a glow plug control module tomorrow, its $185. I wish my autoenginuity worked on a 2013...

I agree, I pulled the wiring harness out and visually inspected it after checking it with a meter. I spent all saturday tearing my truck apart checking it and reassembling everything. Everything points to a wiring problem but I just cant find it. So im going to take a $185 gamble because its either replace the module or the harness, and the module is cheaper.

Over the weekend I received the U0074 and U0407 code. I tried to clear the codes but the U0074 continues to return.
Did you replace the Glow Plug Realy or the Glow Plug Controller?
When you replaced the part, did that correct the issue?
I have not had any issues with this truck when I was in Arizona and as soon I moved to Minnesota I blew out the intercooler boot and now this occurs.

Thank you,
