Thanks for the reply.I checked pin one at the harness connecter and it does have 12 volts.I also checked pin 37 and 57 which also have power from the relay.
I put the code scanner on it again this afternoon and still only code 512.I started the truck and noticed that the check engine light does not come on, when the switch is turned on,like it should for a few seconds.

It could be an intermittent short, and only show up enough to set the code. Try wiggling the wiring to see if you can get it to cut out. If not, I'd see about having the computer tested to make sure the problem is not in there. Also check all the grounds, make sure they are tight and secure. Resistance should be very low between pin 20,40,60 and the negative battery terminal.
