Key in ignition, does your truck ding, ding, ding when the door is open and key is in the ignition?

Glow plug relay? I don't think that's a readable thing.

Exhaust back pressure circuit, try cleaning the EBP tube and sensor.

ICP high/low, mine has that all the time, is your PCM chipped?

walleye yes it does ding ding ding with key in the ignition,

I didn't either, maybe it is seeing a short, i will check that out

hmm will have to recearch where that is

ICP high/low, mine has that all the time, is your PCM chipped?
Not that i am aware of, but who knows before i got the truck

to answer the other question, my engine light comes on while i am driving , then goes off then comes on again, seemingly in and out of 3rd gear. that's why i wanted to see what was going on, was expecting a tranny code!

When the engine light comes and goes is it after heavy foot and take a minute or two to go out? And did you clear the codes and see what comes back?

happens when i am accelerating on the freeway, so yes heavy on the pedal to get up to speed. then will go off as i am just cruising for a bit, then comes back on as i ascend a hill, as i said before figured it was a tranny issue, but may be fuel issue hence the codes

Sounds like overboost defuel. Do you have a boost gauge?

P1211.... check your PCM Sounds like it has either a chip installed or has been flashed. The Essenes of that code is the fueling strategy has been altered in the PCM, injectors can not supply the fuel that is being called for.

I looked at the pcm before there was no evidence of it being chipped, but i have no way of knowing if it has been flashed, cept for maybe these codes right?
i did however find that there was a pyrometer setup on it before, as it finding a hole in the exhaust manifold so did they take a tuner off of it??

If memory serves, the PCM defuels when the MAP sensor sees 24psi. You will need one of these to prevent that:

You should probably find some way to read boost pressure before throwing parts at the problem though.

Thanks for the link but I agree with you I need in install a gauge or get dash commander to work I am not expecting perfection but it would be helpful, anyone have useful experience with dash commander? I am read the manual now

My truck is live tuned and I had to learn about this after I bought it, it sounds like yours is too. What is in place of where the pyrometer probe used to be? I have AE, which is a thing of yore, today they use ForScan or TorquePro. It would be telling if you could graph a run to be analyzed. If you are tuned in any way it would be best if you had a pyrometer in there to monitor EGT's.

when and if you get it to work compare your MAP to the Baro. if they are not tthe same you likely have a flashed PCM.
( if they are the same you may still have a flashed PCM but the altered MAP reading is a common programming trick )
