I'd like to start off by saying that I am working with DS customer service (prompt responses, no issues with CS) and I am just looking to see if anybody else is having the same issue that I am.
I purchased an inTune this week, updated it, and installed the 87 canned tune in my '12 Silverado 5.3L. I turned DoD/AFM off for the ECM and went with stock TCM settings. The tune completed the ECM backup/write and then completed the TCM backup and failed the TCM write. After this happens, the inTune freezes up when you attempt to write or restore.
I was walked through how to reset the unit and then reinstall the stock tunes. I completed that and then the same thing happened again. The upside is that the ECM tune was installed and I like the way it drives now.
Anybody else having a similar issue?
'12 Silverado TCM Write Failure
Re: '12 Silverado TCM Write Failure
I am in exact same boat with same year truck and all ('12 Silverado 5.3 6spd & I just recieved my intune i1000 this week too). I was kinda chin dipping a little as it was loading up or writing new tune, can't exactly recall what it was doing, but it said there was a problem. Press "continue" & it was going to save it in trouble log. I pressed "continue" & the spinning busy icon was rolling for about 5 or so sec.s before freezing up on me. I left it alone for a good 10 min.s hoping it would unfreeze and work it's way through but no luck. So I unplugged it from the ODB2 and turned the key to see if it still runs and it does.
I called the trouble shooting dept, waited in hold queue for about 10 mins but then an incoming call came that I had to take so I had to hang up before I got to speak to anybody.
I decided to look here for a solution. I guess I will have to folow your footsteps and try calling them from my car again and go through the same steps as you.

Bump! Anybody else having this issue. I can't even take a log. It freezes whenever it goes to the "turn key to on screen". No update from Diablo yesterday.

Mikel can you check on the status of this? I haven't heard anything with the person I was emailing since Friday.
