Don't forget that the positive and negative connectors are different sizes.
Make sure you get one of each, not two of the same.

Update:

I woke up this morning and bought some new, shiny, fancy stinger terminals. Put em on before work, and crossed my fingers. On my way home tonight, it died twice on me. "reduced power" on the display, and p0601 again.

Some months back, probably march or april, I found my floorboards soggy, and discovered the clogged sunroof drains. The truck never ran different than usual, so I figured I got lucky, and havent had a problem with it since. Is it possible the computer could have gotten wet then, and is just now having problems...? Whats my next move, the next thing I can try to rule out...?

Thanks for any help.

pull the side cover to dry it out.
then you must lift the carpet and block it up to dry or get mold/rot/rusted floor

I fixed the leaky sunroof drain months ago, dried my floors, and havent had any moisture problems since. Had a few rainy days since then, and Ive also tested the drain by pouring water into the trough in the sunroof and verified that it was draining properly.

Is there some way to bench test the pcm/bcm and verify if thats my problem...? Am I pretty much stuck taking it into a shop for a diagnostic to figure out if thats where my problem is?

A tuned PCM from pcmforless has been on my wishlist for a while, perhaps Im getting one sooner than planned...

Thanks for all the help guys, much appreciated.

Update:

I finally got the truck into a dealer for a diagnosis - turns out it was in fact a bad PCM. Ill be ordering a tune from PCMforless within the weekend, and will update with info once I get it installed.
