Started this on another forum with no replies at all. Long story short all 4 o2 sensors started throwing heater circuit high codes. Then the engine started stumbling and stalling. Here is the latest update. Any info helps thank you

Another updated. Ended up running new wire from pcm to truck side connector for o2 sensors. Still stumbled and misfired a bit. Replaced one upstream o2 sensors with ntk 23159 and seemed to fix bank 2 fuel trim (was pulling -33%) truck ran fine with just that. Decided to replace bank one upstream with same part number. Kinda ran weird the first drive cycle. Bank 1 seemed to be intermittent getting weird voltages code p0300 again. Second drive cycle went a bit better just stumbled one time and didnt seem to misfire. Not sure whats going on anymore. Checked and cleaned ground g107 at pass side inner fender. Checked cleaned pcm ground by battery neg. Ground strap on back of passenger side head looked in place and measured 0.25v drop while cranking and 0.05v drop running off of ac mounting bolt on the engine. Only thing i can think to start looking at now is the pcm.

Update. When i reset the pcm disconnect the battery cables etc. let the engine idle to operating temp. O2 sensors and heaters act normal. 0-1v and 1200f heater circuits show duty cycle. Let it sit for 4 hours. Still acts fine. Let it sit for 24 hours then it acts up again. No heater duty cycle. O2 voltages above 1v. Bank 1 stays that way bank 2 will eventually correct itself. I can run 25% heater cycle from my scanner and watch the temp increase and voltage drop but the duty cycle on the scanner stays at 0%. Start the truck and temp drops voltage goes back up on that bank 1. Really not sure what else to try here. Did kind of look at the ground wires again and the wires themselves dont look awesome but i really dont want to chase all that wiring that goes to g107 etc. looks like a bunch of wires going to the one eyelet.
