Got a P04 code coming up, which is ECM communication fault. Unit cranks but wont fire. Swapped ECM out and truck ran fine. Fitted new ECM.

2 weeks later same code and fault came up, ECM faulty again, tested on another unit. Anyone came across an issue like this? Seems like a wiring issue or a shorted module/sensor may be blowing the ECM, but then again I thought it would have blown a fuse before it blew the ECM. Don't want to put another ECM without locating the cause. Not really sure where to go next other than pulling the whole harness apart.

Fact of the week
In March 2002, identical twins in Finland died on the same day in similar accidents within hours of each other. A 70-year-old man was killed by a truck while cycling; hours later, his twin brother was killed by a truck on the same road, about a mile away, before the family had been informed of the first accident.
