can`t re-program any thing

Post by powerhouse »

Hello,i have a 2002 f-259 7.3l .i bought a predator tune from e-bay for this truck.
When i recieved it ,i plugged it in and tuned the performance setting to 100 hp.I must say....wow.what i difference,so i saved my original setting like it had asked me to do,and i fooled around with the different setting 80,60hp ,so i read not to use the 100hp if i did not have any other mod`s (air intake,exhaust ) so i tuned it to 85hp.That was on wed ,of last week,so on thur,night i had to tow a car on the car hauler ,(it would not start) so i shut mine off,took one battery out,booster the car,installed battery in truck again,then tried to re-program tune to 65hp setting(do not want to tow with 85Hp ,it said not to) plugged in predator,and tried to do it,this is what happened,1-perfoemance tune,2-turn key on.3-diablo sport 100hp.4-you`r original back up will now be saved.(i did that the first time in installed it)5-sorry this vehicle already has a performance tune.the predator does not support tuning over non-factory tuned.6-original back up not saved.7predator will now make a 2ond atempt.and the same thing happend the 2ond time.Do you have any input on why it says this or anything that i can do to fix this problem??????please help
