Diesel just died

Hello, drivin my 2000 f-250 superduty 7.3 diesel to work it just died. would not turn over. it cranked but seemed like it didn't get any fuel. had it at a garage they tested fuel pump said it works. the guy was telling me something about injector module or something on the inside fender was jumping 30 amp fuse. thinks its a short.
i have it at ford right now but hoping some one had something similar happen and i can speed up the process to not have a hefty bill at ford. thanx in advance.

Most likely the cam position sensor. Its a common issue on the 7.3

Dont let the dealer hose you Ford released a new sensor in May that is only 25 bucks, the old one was 280.

Yep, happened to me today also. It threw the codes:
P0344 CPS circuit
and
P0340 CPS circuit error

Threw the new CPS in, 10 min job and truck is ok again.
Here's´the instructions how to change it: http://guzzle.rbmicro.com/cps.html
