May or may not be helpful but I know when doing EGR deletes there is a ground that is connected to one of the studs that holds the intake manifold down, it is on the driver side, all the way back towards the firewall. I've heard if that is left off it can cause similar issues, though I don't think it's your problem since you start fine one day and not the next. Definitely sounds like a loose connection somewhere, but not something completely disconnected. Make sure your connections at the FICM are TIGHT.

Check your FICM voltage. I'm 98% Sure It's dead
