glowplug problem?

I am getting a p0380 code for the glowplugs/module on my Cali. truck. According to my AE, the plugs cycle normally. I also did the KOER glowplug test and it passed. No problem starting the truck. Any ideas?

I would say your controller is going or gone south. Here is a link https://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/3...ighlight=P0380 Give Clay a call at Riffraff Diesel Performance

DTC P0380 is set when the PCM detects a malfunction in the GPCM.
Possible causes:
shorted/open power
open/grounded circuit
worn or damaged GPCM

I also have the GPCM. Another site pure diesel power had the darn thing listed at $230. I would say Clay and the team have it priced wonderfully.
