AnotherGow Plug Issue

Been driving my '04 4WD 6.0 Excursion, "Thumper," for a few hundred thousand miles, (Didn't BP the engine) I fixed Ford's screw-ups that plagued the engine last year, replaced just about everything that was replaceable but now I'm stumped.
New Glow Plugs just ain't glowing. New GP harnesses, new FICM, New GPCM, ran my Autek engine analyzer and came up with the following error codes in a cold pre-start mode:
P0098 - IATS2 Circuit Input (none)
P0404 - EGR Sensor A Circuit Low (none)
P0671 thru 0678 - Glow Plugs Circuit Failure (none)
P1000 - OBD Sys - Readiness Test Not Complete (none)
Glow Plug Coil Ontime - 0 sec.
I have two methods to start the engine. I either have to heat the block for an hour+ (depending on the air temp) or use the ether. Is my next step the PCM/ECM unit next to the battery$$$???
Looking for some good advice before I spend the big bucks.
Thanks.

PS: My spell checker failed to see that title to this problem is actually "Another Glow Plug Issue"
