Won't start
04 6.0 turbo diesel
went to leave work a couple days ago and drove about 100' and truck died. it still turns over like normal just wont start. I pulled code p2285 for icp sensor but I disconnected it like ive read in other post then tried to start. No Luck fuel filter is good. do batteries have anything to do with it.. any other quick ideas before I have it tow to shop. any help would be greatly appreciated. thanks

Yes i only have about 2000 miles on it since the last oil change. It never threw the 2285 code until i unplugged the icp sensor. Check engine light was on with no codes originally so i tried the unplug of icp based off other forums and similiar problems. Any other suggestions.

Not at this time. You mentioned batteries. Does it crank at normal speed?
Others should chime in later.
FICM seems to be something that goes bad in these as well. Do some searching on that.

Did they do any testing with any gauges before pulling the valve covers? They should have and should be able to tell you what the FICM voltages were. If they immediately proceeded to remove the valve covers with no testing, I would consider taking it to another shop.

Ya they ran their electronics against what the ficm and icp were and it was pointing toward low oil pressure to the injectors so they were pressure checking the system to see exactly where it was coming from.

Glad they found the problem. That's typical for an 04 hpop.
