No wait to start light.

I started my truck up this morning with no problems. When i was backing up the truck the engine died. Tired to start back up and nothing just crank and no wait to start light. Checked all fuses and relays in cab and under hood. They all had power. The relay for the glow plugs has power going it. I am out of ideas and was wondering if there is anything else to check.

Unplug your fuel heater (red wire on driver's side of fuel bowl about halfway down) replace fuse #22 under hood(20 Amp Maxi) then retest and see if it starts

Did you pull it out and look at it? I had a blown fuse the other day that the module was backfeeding enough voltage to light the test light. Check to see if you have power on the red wire for the fuel heater.

Well finally got back to working on my truck. I tested the red wire for the filter heater. It does have power their. I had also tried the idm box in my friends truck and it fired right up. So i know it is not the idm. Anyone know what direction to go from here.

I was the ecm. I hooked up my buds edge programmer and it said connection failure check to see if key is in on position and retry. Not sure what could have caused it. Getting one out of junkyard for $195. Thanks for the help.
