Do you know what ones have a PIC micro controller in them? I would love to get my hand on some non working ones to take a look.
I did get my figured out and working well... and the truck start well! Just haven;t had the time to post much with taxes, work and life in gernal.. I want to take some...
I am not too sure how to take this. First you say you would be more than happy to help then go on then say you have no intentions of helping. Not too sure why you need to say this.
I know this engine family very well, Own many in the past and have been working on them for decades... and I...
Ah yes the weather... Not only have I been dealing with cold and wet... I get wind there also... Man I hate the wind! Give me wet, give me cold but wind, yuck!
Well the number of flashes seem to be a code. I am willing to bet we can figure it our here. A lot of these threads I read seem to needlessly replace items. So far we have 1 4 and 7 flashes. I need to sit down and read all the stuff above to see of there is any more clues. It did state one...
I will have to check my grounds. More and more I think about this I am convinced the box looks for what the voltage is at power up. A bad ground would cause a voltage drop and thus no joy. Maybe the 7 flashes is a under volt code? Wouldn't this be awesome to know!

The stuff I attached tells me what is inside the boxes. I have not been able to find that anywhere. Also I am shocked that no one here knows how the boxes work. This place is wealth of knowledge and thought this would be a good place to ask.
You sure can test the glow plug with a test light...
Thanks for the input! It just I am not one to load up the parts cannon and start shooting. In my limited years of troubleshooting I just don't find the parts cannon all that effective. I want to know how to tell what part is bad. Once I get an understanding of how the system works then I can...
I have been doing some research trying to find testing information and how they work. Maybe my search FU isn't good as I really can't find anything. So I downloaded the patents and took a look.
My focus will be on the EESS , 3S and the TSU.
The issues I have is the wait light flashes 7...
