Thanks for these ideas. I'm passing them on to my guy at Route 66. If the problem is in the ECU, where can I get a new or rebuilt? Had no idea I would get so much support! Thanks so much.

Thanks for the responses. Our guy tried two scanners: a GM Tech 2 with an adapter for older cars, and a Verus snap-on. There was no communication at all; it powers up but it will not communicate. Don't know if I need a new ECU (only have 17,000 miles on the truck), but need to communicate to solve our problem of hard or non-existent starting despite strong battery (fuel pump issue?).
The most common problem is one of the pins gets pushed out the back of the ALDL connector. You could also run a jumper from the ecm to the ALDL. Pin E12 looks like the one to jump from the ecm to terminal B on the ALDL. Terminal A on the ecm should be tested for a good ground.
Jim's suggestion didn't work. Still no communication. We're using a GM Tech 2 with an adapter for older cars, and a Verus snap-on.
