Will not idle

My truck will not idle in or out of gear. However, if I turn the steering wheel It will come out of it from time to time and run fine. If I turn the wheel again it goes right back to rough idle.

That is a code for the ignition module. Here is a guide to help you change it.

Check out the diagrams (below). Please let us know if you need anything else to get the problem fixed.
