Did you screw with the axle ratio setting?

No, i never touched that setting. the only settings i went in and changed were; throttle sensitiviity, speed limiter, and rev limiter. and even so after i had the problem i went back and reset all the perameters.

Hey Mike, i just figured out how to solve the issue i am having. For some reason after i install a tune, the communication is cut from the transmission, but to fix this i just disconnected then reconnected the battery cable and the transmisson was working just fine. Im am just stumped on why this happens? any ideas???

disconnecting the battery on these vehicles is the cure all for anything ;)

Wish that was true.

Been weeks and my fuel trims are still all screwed up. Thats okay though, cause I have a transmission sitting in the back and aren't driving anyway. :( :cry:
