Dealer Says Box, Box Says Not Them
Driving Down The Road My Truck Will Just Shut Off, Sometimes It Starts Back Up Right Away And Sometimes I Have To Coast It To The Side Of The Road And Wait. Sevice Light Comes On With P 0483, P 2509, P2149, P2146. The Light Stays On For About 3 Starts And Then Goes Out Til It Happens Again. The Daler Says Its The Juice And Juice Says Its The Truck.

i know for a fact the p2146 and 2149 are edge codes mine has done the exact same thing your truck has i just didnt get any of those other codes just p2146 and 2149 they are 2146 bank 1 cyl 1-3 voltage hi/low and 2149 bank 2 cyl 4-6 voltage hi/low do a search for these codes and you will find them directly related to the edge juice

what ti sounds like is something is causing a low voltage in the injector circuits which is then not allowing the injectors to open completely or only open a fraction of what they should to spray the fuel into the chamber in other words its cutting off the fuel to you engine. i would take the juice off and talk to edge and explain that it is the voltage drop on the injectors.

imagine that
a box manufacturer saying "not me"
and a dealer saying "box did it"
thats a daily occurance
sad thing is some people end up throwing money at a simple problem and still never get it fixed

Usually those codes are because of a high side driver short on one or both banks of injectors. It is not so much a low voltage to the injectors but, that the driver side is being shorted somewhere.
There are duration modules that modify the high side driver and others that do not. Typically the ones that do not modify it do not get the 2146, 2149 codes. I am not going to name any names or give any hints but, do a search on those codes and you will see what modules seem to coincide with them.
I am certain that if you get your module back to Edge they should be able to fix this problem.

I cant beleive you even brought it to the dealer with the box still on it.
.Before you bring the truck in,remvoe all aftermarket stuff that could affect the problem,and drive it a while,then if its still doing it,bring it in.I am willing to bet 50% of the "problems" with new vehicles are aftermarket parts related. not to mention the red flag on your warranty you could easily get or them denying your warranty.IMO,its just not worth it.
