New ficm no clatter

New ficm no clatter
I put my new ficm in that I got from Pensacola diesel. I am getting 48.5 volts. I have an sct x4 scanner that I’m monitoring everything in and my truck still won’t turn on and doesn’t have any injector clatter. I don’t know what could be causing the issue still besides maybe the fact that the ficm will drop down below 46 volts while cranking but idk why that happens when it’s a new ficm. Please someone help me get my truck running again.

First thing I would do is go back and reseat the connections to the ficm making sure they are fully connected. Also, were you having this issue before you put the new ficm in? It also helps the more knowledgeable folks to have the details of what year model you have, with mileage and any major modifications listed.

Lots of questions ........
What year is the truck?
Why did you install a new FICM? In other words, what were the problems that caused you to buy a new FICM?
Have you done any other work to the truck recently?
Are the parameters that you posted (in the link) when cranking or just with the key on?
Please post the following when cranking:
Cam/crank sync
FICM sync
rpm
Edit - found this unresolved thread. Might help someone figure this out, Lots of unanswered questions ..........

Sure seemed that way, but he is now getting decent LPower and low but not necessarily crippling MPower output (if it is even a 48v FICM - who knows though) ..... just with the other thread not closed out and no feedback here, I just figured he solved the problem, has already put new parts in, and moved on. Doesn't even look like the PID data posted is cranking data though, so who knows what is going on with this one.

Hey guys sorry I didn’t see y’all replied. I have an 04 f250 6.0 power stroke with 156k miles on it. Originally I was getting clatter every now and then and was getting codes for ficm preformance and ficm low voltage as well as when I throttled hard I would have misfires. I bought a 48 volt ficm from Pensacola diesel and I posted my problems on a Facebook forum and everyone told me I had a bad ficm( the one in the picture) so I used my warranty and got a new one. Well when I plugged the new one in yesterday it would drop from 41 volts down to 2 volts like my orginal one did. I’ve checked the red fuse under the hood and it’s not broken. I’ve checked the fuses under the dash and they’re all good. I tried posting a video but it wouldn’t upload but everything is good it’s just not getting injector clatter.

How did you check the fuses?
If you did not use a meter then take the fuse out and put a meter on it.
Too many ties I have gotten the "The fuse looked good" only to put a
meter on it and find it was blown. I have even done that once with that
very fuse.
Check to make sure all the connectors are snapped into the FICM
Now if that fuse turns out good with a meter and the plugs have been checked then you have
an issues with power getting to the FICM. The first place I would look is the FICM relay then
the wires feeding that relay and leading off to the FICM.
Here are a set of wiring diagrams that include the FICM. This will show the power feeds and relay,
Back to a question that was asked and not answered Why did you replace the FICM in the first place?
