    bought truck this year with a cel, truck seems to run fine but feel could be better

    check engine light stays on and periodically flashes

    After an ecm main fuse issue at battery box (fixed now) I noticed resetting power to the ecm the cel would be gone but only for half a days work then return. Also randomly no cel

    issue is tried two different shops and can’t communicate to ecm to decode problem

    new engine harness year ago

    power and ground at connector and can read abs just not engine

    thoughts and ideas?

    The engine is not communicating on the datalink. You need to pull the engine ECM connector and measure the resistance on the J1939 datalink between the ECM connector and the data port in the cab. could be a broken wire or a pin in a connector not connecting. Unlikely but could be a problem inside the ECM
