Message: [QUOTE="Mdub707, post: 221990, member: 107"] I hear that man. I fix FICM's on the side too and honestly a LOT of cold start problems are directly related to FICM's. I can even swap FICM's to get rid of "sticky injectors." I can take two FICM's, both reading 48V at all conditions, and one will simulate sticky injectors, and the other does NOT. Some idle smoother than others, some run better than others, and some are just junk even at 48V across the board. No doubt on that. It's actually quite depressing what a bad rep the 6.0 gets and most of it is incompetent technicians who can't diagnose squat. Yeah and FICMrepair.com or whatever does it for even cheaper, I still wouldn't send my stuff to them. You need to ask these places how they're testing them in and out, are they staking, are they replacing components. I do it for less money than the ad posted, but I don't go to anyones house. I send a good working unit out FIRST, with no core charge (no down time for the guy buying one), and every unit I send out is personally tested on my own truck. A test bench doesn't tell you squat, but how my truck starts in 0* weather tells me a LOT. I have a couple units on my bench right now that read 48V at all conditions, but the truck runs like complete garbage until its warm, then runs GREAT. Most would diagnose this as bad injectors, because the FICM tests good and my batteries are new. Guess what, a different FICM cures the issue though.... So even though some of these cheaper places can do a re-solder job, it doesn't mean they're "fixed!" Just my 2 cents. [/QUOTE]
