Hey guys, pulled my ficm this morning. Got the case apart and noticed this. Corner is melted off of whatever this thing is. Also had a little piece of what looked like metal hanging off it. Is this thing pooched now?

do yourself a favor and call ed and ask about an exchange or send yours to repair.just exchanged mine .2nd time in5 years ficm went south .first time local dealer screwed me for $1700.this time after reading many posts went with ed...couldnt be happier.a third of the cost plus great guy answered every question i threw at him.truck running great now.
H..only DIY ficm repair info I've read about here isn't what your asking about. If shipping useless, then local dealer may be your only option? Good luck on outcome!

If we start talking about antlers i am leaving this thread...
I don't know the FICM well but that looks like the amplifier (power supply) can he replace it with the international half shell part? http://www.powerstrokediesel.com/doc...S_04-11_r5.pdf
That should be the section under the black plastic. I don't think you should consider just replacing the single chip. The whole part should be less then $300... Search in TDS for FICM Half Shell for more threads. If you really need to go cheap Dorman also makes their version. http://www.dormanproducts.com/digita...Module_Dor.PDF and you probably can order it from your local auto parts store. I would try international first, they seem to be the cheapest on some items and then move on to the Dorman part.
I bought one from Rock Auto, a Dorman replacement board for about $150. Before I got it installed I sold it to a friend in dire need, straightened his truck right out. Guess I will have to order another one. I have a fresh discount code for Rock if anyone needs it.

Well i got the new ficm in, Runs better. Doesn't buck like a horse when the converter locks up anymore. However i've still got a miss at idle and P0278 code still (#6 cylinder contribution/balance) Should i start looking at replacing an injector now?
