Need help 2000 7.3 diesel
I have a 2000 Ford F-350 7.3 and I can't get rid of an error code po683. I have changed the Gpcm and the solenoid. I have checked the wire harness and had a burnt out plug that went to the glow plugs and replaced that. Now I am lost. I can't smog my truck. Had to be smoked in March now it's may. Can someone please help!!!!

Ok I will do that again. Could it be a sensor gone bad or the fuse relay

What does the other side of the connector look like where the burnt pin was?

The gasket was fried so that is what I replaced. The connector was burnt so I cleaned that up. I toned it and it was running all the way thru. What ohms should I get on it.

Are you talking about the valve cover gasket? The P0683 code is a PCM to GPCM communication error not a glow plug code, IIRC.

Looking at the connector the order of pins is
GGIICIIGG
G - Glow Plug
I - Injector +
C - Injector -
Ohms between the G and block Ground should be 0.1 - 2.0 ohms. Anything more than 2 ohms indicates a problem.
Looks like you could use the wire diagram in the following link and check them all the way from the GPCM to the plug to look for a problem with the wires

The instructions in QB12 say to have the PCM disconnected. I would start by using the wiring diagram in the first link I posted and check for broken / damaged wires. If none found then use the second link I posted and check for voltages.
