Exclamation need some help

so i have been having issues with my truck i have just changed cps and it didnt help as i am driving it will randomly die out and if i cycle the key sometimes the wts light and water in fuel light wont come on and if they arent on then it wont start back up sometimes the lights are like flickering like they have a bad connection.. so i am thinking maybe my idm is maybe going bad or it is loosing power any ideas i need my truck to be dependable.. i am scared to drive to the store cuz i feel like i cant trust it please help also if the wts light and water in fuel light are on it will start but it usually dies again sometimes a minute or hour later

Have you tried taking out the chip to see if it still has the problem?
