Lost Quick Adjust after Upgrade '14 Jeep Wrangler Unlim Rubi

Post by BigP655 »

Hello - I have a 2014 Jeep Wrangler 3.6l Unlimited Rubicon with 37" tires and 5.13 gears (upgraded from stock). I've been running the quick adjustments for those and the 87 performance tune since I bought it in August of last year with no problems. TPMS was disabled as the tuner did not seem able to lower the TPMS threshold though. It did seem to hold onto shift points longer than it should but it was working and the Jeep was driveable.

Last week (Aug 29) I decided to detune the Jeep and upgrade the programmer to see if TPMS thresholds were fixed or if the shift points had been adjusted. I upgraded to 1r13d crom. That was a terrible choice. When I tried to retune the Jeep after upgrading the tuner (and subsequent upgrade of the Jeep's CALID that was required) the quick adjustments option is no longer available and I can't adjust for tire size or gears.

I called in Monday and spoke with Garrett and he had me try a few things for due diligence and then got my VIN so the engineers could test it. He said to check with him at the end of the day and he would probably know something. I did and he said it would be the next morning. I checked again the next afternoon by calling and he said the engineers were able to replicate my loss of the quick tunes option menu and it would be fixed in the next release expected in 2+weeks. I asked could we downgrade the tuner as things were working enough at least to be able to drive the Jeep safely whereas I can't now. He said no - we risked bricking the Jeep. I was shocked there wasn't a failback version that is a known good version and shared how we did this routinely with my industry (Networking) and being unable to drive my primary vehicle for 2+weeks wasn't going to work and if there was something else we could do or I'd have to sell the tuner and get another quickly as I can't drive my vehicle - I don't have oem tires anymore, I can't swap gears, and the Jeep starts cutting power going down the street and isn't driveable without changing the gear ratios.

He said since I knew how things ran at his office I could take my Jeep to the dealer and have them flash it and sell my tuner.

I was angry as can be but thanked him for his time and hung up.

I noticed this morning that 1r13e was available for download. I upgraded the tuner and went out to the Jeep and still no quick adjustments. Between the d and e release was about 2-1/2 months. I can not wait 2-1/2 months for an upgrade to restore the features I had on the tuner before upgrading.

Is the next upgrade which includes the fix for quick adjustments being unavailable going to be released next week or 2-1/2months from now?

Do any of y'all have any other possible solutions? I appreciate any help. Thank you.

Mike - you guys could be working on this, I really don't know as I haven't heard anything, and since we're on our 3rd week since I called in originally I went ahead and bought another programmer to handle the quick adjustments section. I don't like having to spend another $200 on something your programmer did do before upgrade but I guess it is what it is. After adjusting my tire size and gear ratio my Jeep no longer goes into limp mode and is drivable again.

1r13f released today fixed the missing menu options. It may have taken 2 months since reported but thank you for fixing that.

TPMS thresholds are still broken and don't work but the Jeep is driveable without that. If you guys can fix that, we'll be back to everything I know of working just like when I had 1r12 installed. Thanks.

Interestingly, I have a similar issue with the TPMS threshold (I have a JK 2012) . So you're not alone waiting for a solution.

Add me to the list of folks having TPMS threshold issues. It worked great up until the Nov 2014 code drop so this is basically a software regression. I installed it and busted my TPMS thresholds. Now it is stuck on 36 PSI. You can go through the motions like you are going to set it and then it works and says that it was changed but nothing actually gets written or changed. Enabling or disabling the TPMS altogether works fine as do the other functions. I have called in several times about this. You guys keep telling me that you are aware of the issue and working on a fix. You even had me call my calibration number in one time to make sure my calibration code was included in the TPMS threshold fix. Anyway, still busted and now I am looking to buy an AEV ProCal or an Aeroforce Interceptor to correct the problem. Both of those products work as advertised with the TPMS thresholds.
