Why does my engine quit when the IDM shuts down?

The actual code is just saying the ecm cannot get the idm to communicate fault codes. This alone does not cause the engine to quit. If the IDM is loosing power and shuts down there are other codes that get logged in the ECM for loss of signal and other communication break downs with the IDM.

Where does the IDM get its power from?

The IDM is powered through at relay. The relay should also be near the IDM itself at the firewall there. The relay is turned on by the ECM. The relay gets it battery power directly from the batteries by a separate ECM/IDM power harness.

It doesnt show symptoms of a fault but it has the engine light on. It turns on and runs fine. I have checked the voltage to the IDM relay and its getting 12.4.

How often does an IDM relay go bad?

When I get that 525 code, I will check the fuse in the battery box first and replace that fuse jumper if needed, followed by the relay and the IDM last. The IDMs do go bad, but not very often. (0% of the time it is the fuse or the fuse holder at the battery box with 8% being the relay and 2% being the IDM.
