a few thoughts. i had ecm problems and it took an old salty experienced DD guy to find it. when the engine compartment got wet it happened the most but sometimes just while driving. i got a check engine light then the engine would derate and sometimes shut off.
after a ton of time and effort, a mechanic found that the ddec unit on the engine had two issues. 1st is it had a bolt that had dropped down from somewhere higher on the engine and gotten wedged between the ecm and the block. it had not worn a hole yet but would have. the ecm is isolated with rubber grommetts.
the other was that one of the pins was bent over. it was an unused pin, but it did prevent the plug from seating all the way which allowed water to get in and cause the fault.
once the pin was straightend and the bolt removed i never had another problem.
for your particular fault, it should also flash a code. if you were running vmspc it would store it. i did find this link for a similar code

if you do a search on the error code you got you will find quite a few discussions about it
