You can try Ebay but you are rolling the dice. Any FICM that came on the vehicle originally that has the heat induction program WILL fail during it's service life. That means there are alot of faulty ones out there. A new FICM is more robust and is designed to handle the extra amperage generated by the heat induction "flash". Basically, if you get a new one there is a very good chance you will never have to replace it again. If you get a used one and install it yourself the PCM and TCM calibrations on your truck will not match the FICM calibration of the used FICM and the truck will not run very well. A trip to the dealer would update all modules so they are in sync. If you buy a new one and install it yourself the truck will not start and will require a PMI (programmable module installation) done to install a program on the FICM, PCM, and TCM.
