Finally got the scanner to connect but it couldn't connect to the ECM. Could this mean my ECM is bad?

I tried to add my truck. Not sure if it took. No other codes. Says 0 codes found. But also says can't link with ECM. It's an 01' with 400,000 + on it but was running strong before the injectors rebuild.

What reader?
Sorry, mixed your thread up with a guy swapping a 01 engine into a 97 truck. Still, the powerstroke obd2 is different from a normal obd2 system.

Using the Bosch not sure about model number but it cost me around$249 + tax. Parts guy said he used it on several diesels. An 02 specifically.

If it's a Bosch otc scanner it should work but it sounds like you still have some air in the system to me and need to crank it a bit more

Might have to lean on the starter a bit also how long before you get low pressure oil pressure on your gauge

About ten to fifteen seconds. It started but ran bad bad bad. Worse than when you run one out of fuel and restart.

Nope, just means the service engine soon light is on again and no o/d off light constant. It's got to be something else. It shouldn't take 5 days to crank the air out. Acts like a cam sensor or crank sensor. Or I was thinking hpop.

Already changed the IPR and unplugged the ICP. Also pulled the IDM looked clean no water inside or evidence of anything wrong with it. When it does fire it only spins a little faster than the starter turns it. It got to 1200 rpm at wot.. Ran for 30 seconds and died. Any thoughts?
