Hey guys so hoping I can get some help with my no start issue.
1998.5 24v cummins manual I swaped into my chevy. First of all. About a month ago I was driving down the highway and my truck shut off.
Died and left me stranded. Got it towed back to my shop in town and I was sure the injection pump died. So I swapped out the pump With a spare one I had and did not fix my no start issue.
I have 20 psi lift pump pressure, good fully charged batterys so it cranks over fast. I did do the vp44 hot wire test and it starts.
being this engine is a 98.5-00 that uses the cam and crank sensor. When I rebuilt the engine I replaced both of them so I know their good. I was leaning towards the ECM being no good.
I swapped in a TEST. ECM that I have, it is from a 01. The truck fires right up! So should be the ECM right?
I swapped in another 98.5 ECM, still no start.
for shits I tried a 3rd 98.5 ECM. Still no start
when I put the 01 ECM in. Fires right up.
I can read codes off of the obd2 plug I have wired in the truck. And clean them.
I do have a p1689 code.
WHAT I WANNA KNOW IS:
-what is different between the 98.5-00 and 01/02 ECM that would allow my truck to run.
- if in fact it is a can bus issue causing the no start. How would it start with the 01 ECM and not that 98.5.
any input would be awesome! Thank you
