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 Can it clear CEL codes?

i have read that the phoenix doesnt have the ability to clear codes. So if my truck is constantly getting P01041 and P01042s (egr insufficient and excessive) then can it fix this? or would i have to get a gryphon

You have read right.

The Phoenix is not capable of clearing codes. Since you are getting EGR codes, I assume you're not driving around a 7.3L.

What kind of vehicle is it?

Bill says that if you can possibly get him the PCM code (which is on the PCM connector on the passenger side behind the battery in the firewall), he will see if he can or not. He's pretty certain he can though. It will be three letters and a number.

you can't run glasspack mufflers after a cat as the cat makes the exhaust too hot and will destory the fiberglass in the glasspack muffler, you would need to make test pipes and bypass the Cats or you will be replacing glasspacs quite often.
