Default 05' cummins shut off while idleing

So wed. morning I satrted my truck and ran back into garage and my truck just shut off like someone turned the key. I tried to restart and it just cranked. I went over the fuses and relays and no luck. I have a scanner i am goin to use Friday morn. and see if i cant find a lead there. Has anyone has this or have some ideas. The local shop cant get me in til Thurs. so why not try til then. Thanks Ryan

It has also been hard starting some times and the temp dont seem to affect it. Another thing thats funny, I noticed that the left head light has been dimmer than the right. Maybe a wirng or a ground issue?
