    Excellent sleuthing and what a great find! Thanks for passing that along. I have no problems yet but I'll be looking mine over for any signs that that might be happening. Preventative maintenance is the best kind of maintenance.

    When they run they're the best truck ever and when they break it can be the end of the world!..so many potential problems with so much wiring..the I.C.P sensor will make the idle drop to 300rpm if it's bad..if you unplug it with the truck running and the idle goes back to normal then it's the I.C.P.. normally when they go,or if you unplug it,the check engine light will come on..i just overhauled my 95,got it up to 1.5 million km!

    Thanks for the help. I have a 97 and the same wires are exposed. A while ago I also discovered to check your wire harness under your intake side of the turbo since it tends to push on it screwing with its ground and thats totally messes everything up

      I know this is old and I hope you've fixed it by now but just fyi to you and anyone else reading this:
      Most scanners at auto parts and for home use can't scan the 7.3l you need something like AE (auto enginuity) or a snap on or equivalent scanner.
      When parts stores try to scan mine it makes the truck stall and they tell me they can't connect
