EZ not working

Drove home and back this weekend. 400 miles each way. on the way back i started noticing the truck seemed to be working a lot harder. And when i got home this evening i could def tell the edge had quit. No smoke. The turbo just wasn't spooling as well. Its def back to stock. I havnt had a chance to even pop hood yet as I had to study for school tomorrow. But i just figured id ask if thres was a simple common solution to this. I bought the box used a few weeks ago and ive been happy with it until now. kinda weird it just completely quit.

Any body have any ideas. I pulled the codes today and there was nothing. Everything looks fine. Im kinda lost when it comes to computers and electronics like this. They dont hold oil in em i generally cant figure it out

Try unplugging and cleaning contacts. Check all the wires for abraisions. Call Edge and talk to them....good customer service. They will take it in on trade and give you a couple hundred toward something else. $500 for a JWA for example.

Lets start with the basics.
What's your fuel pressure? Gotta have gauges on these trucks. Could be a failed LP causing you power loss. What's your boost reading? Could be a boost leak.
Gauges can help a lot in diagnosing a problem.
I haven't heard of too many EZ's failing. Check the connections first though.

Connections look fine. Power actually seem to come back today. So did smoke. I only have a low pressure fuel warning light, however its set at like 7 PSI i think and it diddnt come on. I just bought a pyro and boost gauge but they are still sitting on the counter as I have not bought a pillar pod yet. I will keep checking it. I wonder if maybe it wasnt just me. I took 15 of my friends home with me to go to the GA Tn game over the weekend and hadnt slept for like 26 hours when I drove home. I guess i cant rule that out. Otherwise I will call their tech support. I have delt with them once before and I ended up getting free stuff out of it so ya they are awesome. Thanks for the advice.

Get a 3 gauge pillar pod and a fuel gauge. Throw the idiot light in the garbage.

Trust me, I hate that thing. I had it done shortly after I bought the truck. This is my first diesel and I had not yet joined this site so I didnt know any better haha. I hate that thing. I havnt bought the pillar pod yet cause im trying to find a good deal on a fuel gauge. (college student = no money)
