Well if it had 48 volts then it wasn't bad. Did you test it with the key on/engine off, and then while cranking, and then while running?

FICM needs to be repaired or replaced. It is the FICM that is bad. You should also load test your batteries too.

No codes? Could you do an injector Buzz test? If they all buzz nice and loud and you get eight separate buzzes, then we might have eliminated the injectors or the UVC harness.Let us know. I might have an Idea.
