Glow plug codes

I finally got around to replacing all 8 glow plugs on my 01.Excursion

and both uvch's. Went to start truck and the wife says she heard a sizzle sound. Truck started fine but now has codes P0672 P0674 P0676 P0678 and also P0344. Any idea what would cause this?

Did you replace them because you had codes, or just for preventive measures?

Looks like your GPCM is bad and possibly your CPS.

I had codes for 7 of them. The original driver's side harness turned out to be shorted out. I don't know what the sound was as I didn't hear it but I guess it is possible that the new harness got pinched when I put the valve cover back on. It's strange that the new codes are all one side.

So I went out and changed the CPS(it was acting up anyway, time to get a new one for the glove box). I checked the codes to see what was still there and now there are no codes at all. I started it several times and still no codes. I didn't disconnect the battery or clear them from before. I guess I should be happy but I'm confused as to how the codes would just disappear.
