Upgrade your Evo (Disabled)
Upgrade your Edge Evolution to a Gryphon Programmer to allow for custom tuning and additional functionality.

Due to issues with the cable failures due to incompatible versions of firmware, we do not offer upgrades or tuning for the 1997-2003 F-Series gas or 7.3L diesel trucks. We recommend using another platform.

I have tried to update the Edge probably 6 times over the last 3 months and there were no updates. Edge did not tell me the TSB number. I can try and get that from them now and see what happens. I am just frustrated because other people can run theirs with CAIs and I can't even run any level with a stock truck. It would always throw the code within 5 minutes of startup and when it is cold outside. But I did have it happen twice in the middle of driving even when the truck was at normal operating temp. I'm desperate for help at this point.

Like you already have stated and I'll state it too. Something isn't right.
Give edge one more shot and maybe you'll get a tech that won't chalk this up to needing a TSB.
I'll post a note on the moderators board.

I'm also checking into a resource on your code and I'll post something up if I find anything after 10:00pm cst tonight.

I tried taking the PCM connectors off, checked them and they were fine. I have not taken it to the dealer yet because they don't know about the TSB that I was told about and I'm afraid they will charge me just to look at it and then say nothing is even wrong. How could it be anything with my throttle body when it drives just fine in stock mode? Plus I bought the truck brand new in September 08 so I find it highly unlikely that it would be the TB.

Part of the problem is that when you load the program into the pcm. Its loading in a different set of values. One of the values in edge's programming isn't jiving with the limits set in the pcm. Thus the code.
That why a lot of people are encouraging you to get a reflash of the pcm and when that happens you will get a different calibration code that the edge's programming might be more compatible with.
This is an issue that edge should address.
If the code isn't present when pcm is stock program then it is not your TB its more or less the calibration code and having compatibility issues with the edge.
Bill is going to have to look into this if edge can't help you.
Other brands of programmers have done this in the past also.
Usually the programming company is up on their stuff and can provide an update to fix the issue. A reflash might work also.
If you can put your HEX/calibration code in your user cp so Bill can see it.

Trust you me bro, these guys have their ducks in a tight row! And if they don't have the answer they most definitely do their best to get it. My suggestion is, listen and be descriptive to save time. As for me, I have no idea how to fix your problem. But I am with you on having concerns. Good luck!
