2010 lmm with mpi twins and dual cp3s. after we changed the y-bridge over to a solid rdl unit, put it all back together and now the truck is idling at 26k. both fpr's are plugged in we have check all wires going to the plugs. the fuse for the dual fueler controller is fine. everything is plugged in on the motor. any ideas?

ECM- been there and done that. Dont know exactly how it happens, but seems that 12V somehow gets backfed into the ECM and short circuits the FPR controls. I replaced the ECM and all was fixed.

GOOD LUCK -Steven

wonderful. yeah i was talking with george and thats what he was thinking too. he said to check the middle wire on the pigtail going to the valley fpr and it should have 1.8-1.9 volts. its gots 3.5? he wasnt exactly sure about the numbers 100% but does 3.5 sound wrong

Im pretty sure that 3.5 is wide open- non regulated. The 1.7 is idle voltage.

It took us a while to track it down- but it finally led back to the ECM.

I have a good ECM here from Socal if you need one-

When your truck was doing this did it sound like an lb7 with the rp maxed out or just a little rough on idle then real loud when you bring it off idle?

I've seen this once, and it was the plug at the little jumper harness. I'm guessing a wire was damaged or a pin was pushed out when you swapped the y-bridge. It makes sense since you were working in that area when the problem started.

Highly doubt this is an ecm issue. Ground, pinched wire, unpluged or not fully plugged in, twin cp3 controller, FPR or like dan said check fuel temp sensor.

Have you checked your fuel temp sensor? If so what is it reading?

It should be reading a real number (not -40 or +300 or somthing like that). Why? Ask GM. Its just one of those things...

Also check the IAT #1 and #2 and see if they have a strange reading.
