Phoenix Switch-On-The-Fly Chip (DISCOUNTINUED) (Disabled)
Power Hungry no longer sells the Phoenix/TS chip, but if you need custom tuning we can recommend a few really good tuners that will be able to still provide tuning and support for your chip.

If you have any other questions or comments about the Phoenix/TS chip, please post it here.

Default Glow plugs not working in '03 when chip is in PCM

I put a Phoenix chip in my friends '03 F350 with California emissions. The glow plugs will not come on when the chip is in the PCM. Remove the chip and the glow plugs will come on and the truck fires up.

Anyone had this issue?

Yeah, you're using 49-state calibrations on the chip. CA emissions trucks use a glow plug module instead of a relay. This requires a different control strategy than "normal" trucks.

I guarantee that the hex code you're using on the chip doesn't look like something like this:
"TNAA4N2".
