Thanks for the link and the help. I'm going to try and run down the possible location on the truck thats shorting out the circuit this weekend. Do you see any harm in using the truck while the codes are still showing up? I know I run the risk of getting stranded and a possible fuse shortage but the truck is running with no problems and not having any other means of getting to work puts me kind of stuck in a hard spot. I just don't know what the module does completely and if it fails, I don't want to cause myself to fix something more then the $90 it would cost to replace the module.

O, yea. I was running my 93 custom performance tune at the time. I also tried reseting the fuel shut off switch in the truck and cleared the codes and for a while the codes were not coming up. But what ever it is, its not the fuel shut off because the codes came back on my way home today.

once again thanks

I guess you won't find out what it is until you get under the truck.
IMO You probably won't get stranded but there is always that chance, even with a "NEW" vehicle.
Really check the wires and connectors.
You gotta do what you gotta do.

So I got a chance to get under the truck. I dropped the spare and started from the back. First think I looked at was the module it self. Turns out that the back of it is cracked from one coner to the opposite corner. I'm taking it as this is the problem. I'm going to replace it and see where I'm at wih the new module installed. Just wait on the part from ford.

Thanks Lars for the support.
