Update....I checked the DDEC breakers with a test light and they check out. I had replaced one a few years ago. I put a jumper wire on the other one just in case it might have had enough voltage to illuminate my test light but not enough amps to run the DDEC.
I ordered a Vmspc. It arrived this week with the round plug instead of the flat OBD plug . The flat plug should arrive tomorrow. I have talked to three diesel mechanics ranging in age from 30 to 60 yrs old. None had ever seen an 8v-92 with electronic injectors. The young guy who works on my RAM Cummins trucks knows an older guy who might have a code reader. I'm hoping I can figure out how to get the Vmspc to give codes and that I can figure out what they mean. I haven't approached the Detroit Diesel dealer. They are an hour away and the clock $$$ starts when they pull out of their shop. At least it's "dead in the water" in my driveway!!
