I was driving to work last week, when the service engine light started blinking. This truck has 173,000 miles on it, and has never given me a problem. And has been maintained accordingly. The truck has continued to run smooth as ever, now going on 400 more miles. So, this came as a suprise.

I checked there were no codes, on the PCM. So, I took it to the shop and had a Diagnostics done on it, no codes. The shop didn't have a answer. All fuses have been checked, with a meter and pulled and visually inspected. Today iI cleaned the battery posts, even though they were not corroded. Then had the alternator load tested, it is putting out 14.1 volts.

After, I get in the truck make two more stops, no light. I am trying to get to the bottom of this, so any help would be appreciated.

I had a similar problem with my truck which is a 03 4cyl the problem was the intake manifold.  The composite material that makes up the manifold was starting to break down.  The dealer that I bought the truck covered it , I was very thankful because I was told the manifold repair would have been $1300.  The other symptoms I noticed though was the truck being sluggish at highway speed.

You may be on to something. Did the noi9se sound like a  exhaust leak. Mine has a noise that sounds like its coming from the exhaust manifold. It quitens down after mile or les of driving.
