f350 idi for home use?

By-passed GPC with the ground wire on a piece of 12-2 house wire. Truck started. When I had put the air-cleaner housing back on I had pinched a cable on top of the GPC. The rubber coating on the cable had been rubbed off in that spot and i think I shorted out the GPC unit. My bad. Wondering if this is useful information though:

Does this tell me that my GP's are fine since it would not start until I did the by-pass?

Like I said about 15 posts ago a simple amp draw test would show if it was working or not.
