2004 f250 stalling

truck has egr delete, and studs. just flushed coolant system, replaced oil cooler, and dummy plugs. finished it late at a friends house drove it home stalled out and limped it home. the WIF and glowplug lights come on when it does the stall. next mornin tried it again and now if i pull it out on the street it doesnt make it 50ft and stalls out completely and dies. fires right back up each time though. when it stalls the icp gauge on cts freezes. uploaded a video hopefully that helps some. this is my first diesel so sorry if im forgetting something. oh and its not throwing any codes and idles fine. thanks in advance

I would make sure all your battery connections are good as well as the grounds. Could be pcm or wire chaffing related as well.

What he said. The pcm is reseting. Loose connection or could be an intermittent short on vref circuit.

batteries all tested good. read somewhere about putting a section of heter hose under the connections on the ficm, that seems to have fixed it. the connections seemed in, but i put the hose in any way. no stalls, so far so good. maybe i can make it home now. thanks for the input guys.

I would look very carefully at the wiring in that area for chaffing that is hidden. We had this problem while new and they under warranty replaced wiring harness.
