02 Express Mis-Firing?

Feb 24, 2007 1 Replies

My 02 Express, 4.3 Vortec, has an issue of mis-firing under heavey load or step hills. New Wires, plugs, Cap, Coil Etc. The Computer Scan shows DTC P1381 Misfire Detected - No Communication with Brake Control Module Would the Brake Control Module actually cause the vehical to mis-fire and hesitate and go crazy? It flashes the check engine light while clinbing hills. Sometime works not to bad. When you leave in the morning, It barley crawls up hill kicking and bucking.



Thanks



Start by replacing fuel filter and then if no better do a fuel pressure check. It sounds like fuel starvation and in morning when cold, fuel demand would be the highest and that is when it is the worst.
