Well this tech doesn't have a clue.. Same problem.. I think I have it figured out. First of all there are no pressure switches, no idea how he came up with that one.. When I remove the belt, it stays running pressing the brake or turning the wheel, it's taking enough of a load off of the...

From what they tell me, there are two pressure switches, one for steering and one for braking mounted under the Master cylinder, if the hydro boost system isn't producing enough pressure, (weak pump, pulley/belt issue or check valve in the boost is stuck) the truck will stall when you brake or...

Don't know enough about it, the dealer replaced the noisy pump and no more stalling. He said they removed the belt from the PS pulley, started it and hit the brakes, turned the wheel several times and it stayed running.. You're guess is as good as mine..

Weak pump problem..

Just in case anyone has the same stalling while turning the wheel or braking at idle.. I have a vacuum leak in my hydro boost system..

That's the first thing I did.. Sure sounds electrical to me. I'm going to check fuel pressure today and check the IPR screen.. The alternator wasn't working, I replaced it, the FICM readings 48.5V look good but I wonder if the low voltage wrecked it..

Just like you turned the key off..

Ya level is good.. I'm going to get an adapter so that I can check fuel pressure. If I keep the idle up a bit it won't shutoff pushing the brake or turning the wheel.. I have checked damn near everything and no go..

Hey guys I picked an 06 6.0 F-350 dually and I have a weird issue. If I start it and turn the wheel or touch the brake it stalls, it also stalls while sitting at idle after ten minutes. There is no remote start. I have checked FICM, ICP. I replaced the alternator and EGR valve for other issues...

60 is good..

On the frame rail near the fuel pump.

Did you check both fuel filters? Did you pull the EGR valve and clean it?

Your location? motor mileage? Specific's for bulletproofing?

You are correct, that was the issue. I decided to buy the truck and have the Ford garage fix it along with a couple of other things including front brakes, brake lines, oil change, fuel filter change, trans flush and coolant flush and what goes along with it. I offered $7000, he said no so I...

Okay, thanks for all the info, It is going in Friday morning to get checked out, I'll let you guy's know what the story is. I figure for $50 that he said he would charge me to check it out is money well spent.
