Truck running bad. HELP!!!
Clear the codes, apply dielectric grease to all the connections, and disconnect the batteries overnite. My truck idled very rough on occaision and what do you know a week later the RP gauge dies on me. I think it could be the culprit on code trippers, just being on once is enough.
I suppose. I had the same problems as you, and it runs fine now that the RP is dead. But in your case it couldv'e damaged the sensor. These quad gauges are junk, I hate to say because I am a quad fan, just wish this product would have been better designed. Hopefully it is just a simple problem that can be fixed.

Yeah probably
. being its an 04 that could always become an issue. Didn't you mention something about a TST or was I trippin? If you are returned to stock and still see the problems then thats probably the case.
I have tst too but thats not hooked into my rail sensor.. I just don't understand why the RP gauge would smoke the sensor. It does it whether the gauge is hooked up or not and the gauge works perfectly fine..
if it still acts like that with the quad rail gauge unplugged then it's either the fuel pressure sensor or a shorted wire..........that's my guess anyway.....first measure voltage.. you need to have 4.5-5.5 volts when measuring voltage on the supply and return circuits of the rail sensor plug(while unplugged from the sensor)...if you do clear the code plug the harness back into the sensor...then turn the ignition on...and go out and unplug the harness again....if the code comes right back it's the FP sensor......clear as MUD?????
Have you checked all of the pins in the plugs to make sure they haven't slid over or disappeared, make sure they are making their contacts when you plug them in. As far as the RP gauge goes, seems like the wiring isn't the best and causes some voltage fluctuations. Not saying it does, but the thought is in my head.

Oh.. Well mines pulling a too low code. I have tried cranking the truck up with both fca unplugged and then I also tried it with the rail sensor unplugged. Both times the truck ran bad and idled bad like a 12v
Well I don't think its my quad RP gauge because
1. I have had it on there for about 2 months and no problems at all.
2. The truck started doing this today so I unplugged the gauge all the way and cleared the code and the truck still does it. So I don't really think its the gauge that did it since the truck does it with it unhooked.
I know the gauges were known to trip codes. BUT has a quad rp gauge every actually made a Rail Sensor go bad?? Or do they usually just trip codes and then unhook them and its fine??
