Returned Car to stock, swapped engine out now tuner wont upd

Post by sjb261 »

Ok, I recently had my engine swapped out however before I did I made sure to return the car to stock. After the engine install I went to update the tuner with the latest CROM 9r21 and it says that "you must return the vehicle to stock" before it will allow me to do so. Is there a way to over ride this? I even have the original tune saved on my computer. I have an 06 Charger RT.

sounds like a custom tune....all it should say is original backup.

please restore the original backup and try again.

I relabeled my original tune "original tune 10-15-09" I dont have anything that says just Original Tune. Should I rename it to Original Tune and try that? Also, may be a dumb question.....I swapped my 06 RT engine with an 08 300 C and I was hoping to start fresh using the 93 CAI tune, if I install the "original tune 10-15-09" will that take me back to the settings of my 06 engine? The computer was not changed so im assuming all will remain the same....?

No, when you load any tune to the Predator, it is a custom tune.
You need to go to the performance tune menu and select 'original backup', or go to options/troubleshooting/restore original backup and select YES.
