Thanks for all of the quick help!
yep it's a pretty nice difference huh, as far as the switch I put mine by my right knee in the lower dash just right of the fuse panel cover. Some folks have put them in some pretty neat spots so look around on PSN or some of the other sites or maybe google TS switch.

Someone alot smarter than me will have to give you some answers on the theft light deal, BTW welcome to the PHP crew.

Because of limitations in the TS chips, we have to disable PATS in the Excursion. In order to prevent the theft light from blinking, disconnect the plug from the PATS module. The module is located below the dash, just to the right of the accelerator pedal and should have a red plug on the bottom of it. Just disconnect and the light goes out.

Yes, a standard key will work now.

I just got through towing my 9000 Lb travel trailer a couple hundred miles. The heavy tow setting is perfect. I got better mpg than expected as well (10-12mpg depending on the wind).

I do have one issue though. My wife does not like the shifts in the 80DD program at all. I also think they are a bit harsh. Is there anything that can be done about that? Thanks!

Reburn. If you would like to send the chip back, I will get you an RMA number and you can send it to me. I'll reburn it with less aggressive shifting in the 80DD (or any other programs that you need modified) and send it back.

FYI, the shifts are great now after the reburn. Very happy customer. Thanks.
