Re: 6.0 Falls Dead, Cranks Up?????????

I'd assume that you could test this by just hot wiring the fuel pump and trying to drive it. Even if the pcm was throwing a code, it wouldn't affect the voltage to the fuel pump since you'd effectively bypass the pcm control.

Come to think of it....I'm pretty sure my fuel pump is just wired straight (just with the addition of a relay, iirc there is no pcm control on my pump at all, pulls same voltage at all times).

I'd go that route before buying a whole new pcm. I can't remember if it was brought up or if you tried it before but was the crank sensor ever messed with? The only pcm/fuel thing I really ever remember was that the pcm runs the fuel pump for 2 seconds on key on, but if it doesn't see rpm's from the crank sensor, it will not fire the injectors or coils even IF the fuel pump is working. So in that case the failed fuel pump would actually be a false positive.
