Truck turn s off ?

Hello just got my new hydra in the mail

did the step by step instruction. Now, when I start the truck and switch it into a position from 00 it shuts off? I have to turn the ignition off switch it on again and put it to 00 for it to start. Anybody have similar issues? Maybe I didn't clean off all the silicone? Any help would be much appreciate.

I did alittle more research and thinking that I didn't clean the PCM enough. I will use some nail polish remover to help out. Hope that works.

Can't help about the hydra. But when I initially got my phoenix I thought I had cleaned the PCM connector pretty good, and the truck wouldn't start. Ended up buying a brass brush to clean it up, and it's been working good.

Thanks Austin . Ya I took the PCM out again and used some of the GF's nail polish remover and scratched the rest off with my finger nail. Everything is 100%

that thing is a beast now, Iam afraid to put to the floor in 100 performance LOL. Lots of horse power. Lots of options to choose through. The Hydra is a winner for the price and options. A+. Really happy

About the suggested alternative calibrations in the HydraFlash program. The hex code I have(TNAA5S8) provides the chip with about 5 calibrations and the suggested alternate calibration code (TNAA4S2) provides the chip with almost 20 calibrations.

Does that mean I could use any calibration in the TNAA_S_ / TNAA family of codes?

Thanks

I feel the same way, especially with PMRs. Sometimes I just can't resist the urge. I can't help about which calibrations you can use, but I'm sure someone else here can give you the answer.

No. Do not mix and match hex codes or you'll end up with a stalling/stumbling problem between the mismatched calibrations. If you run one hex code, stick with it on all positions.
