It Powers up, had to replaces it's batteries. But when I turn the key on it just won't recognize it. I just got this truck so I haven't used it. Works fine on other vehicles.

Ok, are you sure your OBDII port has power to it? I'm not sure where it is on the 04, but on the 06 it's a 20amp fuse in position 12 under the dash.

Should be the fuse for the cig lighter. It also powers the OBDII diagnostic plug.

If that's the case, then it's not powered. I don't think the cig lighter has power. Do you know what fuse that is? I don't have a manual to look it up.

Using google, it may be #3 under the hood.

pulled the oil filter cap off, new filter was soaked in oil, none standing in the bottom of the container. I crank it for maybe 2 seconds and ran back around and saw some oil draining back through the bottom somewhere. I haven't tried cracking the frame rail fuel filter again yet, but it's still cranking.

I don't know enough about the ficm voltage to know if it correlates to battery voltage, but I didn't have the batteries on trickle charge last night.

You need to check FICM output/input voltages. You want 48 volt. Do you have ScangaugeII or anything to monitor?
Did you find where you pulled the fuse from originally? Check 103.

I don't have that kind of a scan tool. All I have is my code reader and a hand held volt meter.

Fuse 103 is good.

Did you figure out what fuse you removed yet? Look at the pic I posted above and see what you have missing. It's going to be a fuse above with the ** next to it (maxi fuses).

On your last picture, fuse 601 through the bottom, where are those?

I have 5 fuses in slots marked Not Used. 2, 3, 5, 21, 48

I do not have fuses in 6, 9, 10, 14, 25, 36, 48 (says not used anyways), 104, 105, 106, 111.

Some of those I'm not worried about, but 36 sounds like of important. And to clarify, the only fuse I removed was one of the maxi 30A pink. I bought one yesterday evening to replace the one I robbed, so I have the correct number of those now. I'm waiting for a local diesel performance shop to open to as them for help.
