Suddenly died, now crank no start.

Hey everyone,
I’ve found myself a little stumped. The other day my wife was driving the pickup (2005 F250 6.0), she said she was coasting down hill when the motor suddenly shut off. She did say the battery light came on but wasnt sure if it had before it died. I went though the normal checks (most likely missed a couple but that’s what I’m here for). 1. The fuel filter bowl fills 2. Injector control pressure was around 1,500 +/- while cranking 3. The ficm tested with a multimeter at 58v KOEO (swamps 58v ficm) 4. Both ficm relay and relay port tested good 5. The battery’s were around 12.5v (going to get them tested, fairly new but weaker than I would’ve liked).
it didn’t throw any codes and not being the one it happened too I’m finding myself having trouble diagnosing. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thank you!

Thee are so many possibilities for a cause of a no-start that "polling others" as to what their specific issue was is a poor choice in how to approach solving yours. It frequently results in replacing good parts.

Your codes indicate continued troubleshooting in some specific wiring areas/circuits - as posted in your other thread.
