Dash continually turns on then off after tuning 2016 Durango

[Stoopalini]

Yesterday I pushed the Diablo 91 tune onto my 2016 Durango R/T, and it appears ever since the power has been cycling on the communication bus. I got up this morning and noticed the DIC, as well as the lights for the rotary shifter, were cycling on then off every couple of seconds. I took this video after the car had been sitting over night, before I opened the door.

The Trinity was plugged in, so I unplugged it, but the power cycling is still continuing even with the Trinity unplugged. I'm hesitant to try and flash it again, given the power issue.

Anyone ever seen this issue before?

After unplugging the Trinity, and then closing the door, it appears the power cycling has stopped after a few minutes. But now the battery is down to 8.4v. I have the battery charger on it now, but would really like to know what is going on here.

Is it not "ok" to leave the Trinity plugged in over night, or continually?

options/change sleep monitor, set it to 0 seconds please. That should resolve this issue.

It's set at 5 seconds now. Doing some research, it appears to be caused by leaving the Trinity on the gauge monitoring screen when shutting down the vehicle. And exiting to the home screen resolves it.

I did leave it on the gauge screen, as that's what I like to run when I'm driving.

Seems strange though, as the gauge readout display feature is the big selling point of the Trinity.

please try the 0 second setting.

Ok, will do ... although I can't do it until Friday night, as my wife needs the car every morning to drive the kids to school. Can't afford to test, and have a dead battery during a weekday if it still has the issue.

Did u ever resolve the issue battery drain issue? Thanks

Yes. I changed the timeout period to 5 seconds, and it resolved it. I can now leave the gauge monitors up, and the screen goes to sleep very quickly after turning the vehicle off. Then when I restart it later on, the screen comes back on automatically and has the monitoring going.
