Have a ? / possible problem

[bigredrig]

Here it is guys. I got my gryphon programmer a few weeks ago. Plugged it in to get my hex code. I only got the hex code from my truck, 2001 f-150 5.4l, then turned key off and unplugged programmer. Wasn't gonna install till I got my custom tune, but changed my mind the other day and figured I would put it in this weekend. Well I installed Pegasus on my laptop today, I'm running vista, and went to go thru the steps of updating my programmer. Well when connected to my computer the gryphon's screen is a blank green but Pegasus tells me this:


Unable to locate a Target Instruction file. Process failed

Update failed. Please contact your vendor for assistance.


What is going on? Why isn't Pegasus letting me do anything? Did I screw up my new toy already?

I think you're fine. Pegasus is just telling you there's no custom tunes ready for you yet.

Take your programmer out to your truck. Turn the ignition to ON (don't start the engine) and plug the Gryphon in to the OBDII port. If you see the hex code again that's normal.

You should be able to program in any of the "canned" tunes on the Gryphon. I'd recommend Level 2. Do it and "skip" the "Custom Options" step. I think you'll like the results.

Thank you so much. I'm gonna try that in the morning. Kinda tired tonight from detailing the truck. Waxing is the only time I truly wished my truck was smaller.

I plugged it in today and the hex code came right up. So I should be good to go.

Yup! Sounds like you're in good shape!

I know what you mean about washing and waxing the truck. Damned thing seems big as a house!

Now that you got the hex code.
