    N14 Celect+
    #3 cylinder dead
    White wire has 1.06 volts with key on
    Black wire 0 with key on
    When running
    White wire 0.1 or 0.0 volts (1,2,4,5,6 all act the same way)
    Black wire 1.06 volts (1,2,4,5,6 all have 18volts when running)
    Harness is 2 years old and pin 3/12 ohm out.
    Trucks runs with a M11 ecm and #3 wire shows the same volts and 1-6 truck surges
    Ran overhead
    Sent ecm to get checked they say it shows no codes and worked on there truck.

    Before all this truck would miss between 1500-1600 rpms. Atmospheric pressure sensor fault would show up once a day as intermittent. changed out 1# injector that cylinder was dead and fixed with new injector.

    Sending ECM back today to recheck anyone ever had this problem

    Truck will show same volts with test ecm on all plugs even 3 but not with the ecm that was in the truck.

    Any ideas or do you think what I think that its the ecm? 3rd ecm in 5-6 years

    From what you’ve said The ecm is probably junk. I have a m11 that behaved similarly with a miss around 1500. It did it intermittently for a long time with no codes and eventually showed an ecm power failure code if I remember right. I don’t know if I would put much faith in your voltage readings because of how quick the pulse is I doubt you can get a reliable reading with normal test equipment. Also pretty sure it’s only supposed to be 5 volts but don’t know.

    Ecm harness. the main one.
    these things fail. And in their wake kill injectors and ecms as they go.
