I'm doing something VERY bad. I'm testing 2 mods at the same time, and YES I know better.
Well I just threw a buttload of codes:
P1223
P1226
P1229
P1232
P1235
P1238
P1244
Anyone know a link to where I can look those up? I used Autotap to read the codes, and this is an LLY, so I don't know how valid they are.

Better check your muffler bearing, with that many codes.http://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/Big Smile.gif

I would try clearing the codes and disconnecting the modification in yor electric system. If they donot come back then it's being caused by your modification.

<H5>Circuit Description</A></H5>
The engine control module (ECM) enables the appropriate fuel injector on the compression stroke for each cylinder. The ECM controls the fuel injection control module (FICM) by grounding the control circuit via a solid state device called a driver. The ECM monitors the state of the driver. If the ECM detects an incorrect voltage for the commanded state of an injector driver, DTCs P1223, P1226, P1229, P1232, P1235, P1238, P1241, or P1244 will set.<A name=ss2-1386729><A href="http://service.gm.com/servlets/BlobShtml?ShtmlFile=1386729&psdid=437&evc=sm#ss2-1386729" target="_blank">

<H5>Conditions for Running the DTC</A></H5>
<UL =BULLET>
<LI>The engine is running.

<UL =BULLET>
<LI>The control module stores the DTC information into memory when the diagnostic runs and fails.
<LI>The malfunction indicator lamp (MIL) will not illuminate.
<LI>The control module records the operating conditions at the time the diagnostic fails. The control module stores this information in the Failure Records.

<H5>Conditions for Clearing the MIL/DTC</A></H5>
<UL =BULLET>
<LI>The control module turns OFF the malfunction indicator lamp (MIL) after 3 consecutive ignition cycles that the diagnostic runs and does not fail.
<LI>A current DTC, Last Test Failed, clears when the diagnostic runs and passes.
<LI>A history DTC clears after 40 consecutive warm-up cycles, if no failures are reported by this or any other emission related diagnostic.

This step determines if there are 4 fuel injector control circuit DTCs set in a group. A short to voltage will set 4 fuel injector control circuit DTCs for cylinders 1, 4, 6, 7, or cylinders 2, 3, 5, 8. Refer to DTC Descriptors in order to determine which cylinders are affected. If there are more t

OPPSSS!!! They shorted me a P1241 for all eight!! Maybe I got a rare 7-cyl Duramax!
Not ONE of them was insufficient EGR... Hmmm...
I'll isolate the problem, reset, and recheck.
Thanks Steve!

Just for kicks and giggles, check the grounds on either side of the block on front of motor... specifically the battery grounds, make sure clean and tight. wouldnt hurt to put a star washer under them....

There is a possibility that is continuity related. I'm going through different things it could be, including the PCM and contact quality.

Maybe he is only running on #7.
Eric this is the same code u were setting?
Did u find the trouble (grounds on engine)?

I know what the problem is now. A fix is on the way. I needed to know if any codes were Insufficient EGR Flow. They aren't, so I tested the other mod, and found it.Edited by: McRat
