So far.... Nothing but Problems

1) The calibration (HEX) code was not properly identified when the unit was plugged in. In most cases this occurs when then key is not in the ON position when plugging the unit in. This can also occur if the battery is disconnected or goes dead and the unit is not properly reinitialized (disconnect, turn key ON, reconnect) when power is restored.

2) The custom files built do not match the vehicle's HEX code. This can occur if the vehicle has been reflashed since the original order was placed or the since we were notified of the HEX code.

3) For canned tuning, the PCM calibration simply isn't supported yet. This can be resolved with future updates but we need to know what the calibrations are in order to make those updates.

As far as programming, if you do not turn the key to the off position after programming (including if the programming fails with an "F1" or "Checksum" error), the vehicle will not immediately start. This is because the PCM is still in "Programming" mode. You must return to the main menu, or in some cases disconnect the unit to exit the programming mode. Then you can simply turn the key "OFF" and restart the vehicle.

The Level 3 is written for 91+ octane. If you could let me know what your HEX code is I can take a look at the file and see what the problem is. Also, what is you dad's HEX code.

Not sure what the problem is with Pegasus. What do you mean by "it won't sync"? Does the software not detect the programmer? Does it not connect with the server?

Take care.

Thanks for the info. There is a lot there. First off I am running the canned tunes as I have not gotten my custom tunes.

Second I figured out that the vehicle will not start until it is turned off and then back on due to some trial and error.

I wrote down all my info when it through the code. IT is as follows.

Boot: 2.63.4860
Firmware: 3.2.596
Calibration: 1.4.580
Hardware: 13
Serial #: 1574
Bodyversion: 2.50.5734

Hex on my truck: 0DAL1EW1.HEX

I can’t get my dad’s as he away right now.

As far as the unit not syncing. I’m lost there. I synced it last night to do the first update. It did small vehicle calibration update or something. I can’t remember. All those numbers are before i did the update. After the update it worked on my truck only in level 2. Didn't try level 1. It worked on my truck and turned around and wouldn't work on his truck.

The unit synced last night to do the updates but I have tried to sync again sever different times and have even uninstalled/reinstalled the software and it still won’t sync.......

I am going to go out right now and program my truck back to level 2 and see if i get any errors or anything.....
