The ignition switch is a mulit contact switch that can burn out on any of the contacts.
the contact that feeds the ECM,IP ect is a common failure point.
Your problem does sound like another PMD failure though.
Where did you mount the replacement PMD?
Did you use heat transfer paste/pad between the PMD and what it is mounted to?
Did you replace/re-install the resistor in the PMD connector cavity?
Is the PMD mounted to a heatsink?
If so is the IP harness ground mounted to the IP or the heatsink(big NO-NO)?
Is the heatsink mounted in the engine compartment or remotely mounted outside the engine bay(best location).
Google 6.5 diesel lift pump test and perform it.
