the car starts and everything. i currently got the battery off the car in hope to discarge the pcm so i can have access to the info. The predator just couldnt read it with the beta crom version for my car. but when i load back the original crom file that was meant for this(ram truck crom) it reads the odb info but display a wrong cid screen. so what is going on with this. am i getting a pcm lockout because of the file error installation..

by the way.. i never even use this tuner yet. havent even been able to install it so i dont even have a backup file on this yet.

Then i tried crom file. The thing did the preparation screen. then when it boot the predator, it hang and the predator did too. So now i got the corrupted file screen. Then i did the manual update without autoconnect. Voila got program. But once i connected to the car, it turns on but wont read the info. The predator just keep telling me to turn key on. What can i do?
OK, updating the tool was not a good idea.

May have been a better idea to wait it out till this morning when we could help you out.

What revision was it on?
What did you update it to?

May need to call in and let me reset this tool and start from scratch.

i updated it with the same file that was on it when i first started the update. it was 9t04a. i thought i had a bad file cause i load it throught a thumb drive directly. it was all the same file but just from the desktop

okei. i will wait. I just remeber. After i did the reset. i still had all the file i put into it such as the crom file and caid update. i dont know if thats what you mean by start from scratch.
Also when i checked for error with a different crom file. i saw the pcm error. i dont know if it affect drivability. but currently i am afraid to drive the vehicle.
i hope there is a solutiion... :(

We need to get some wranglers in here for some more testing before we add these in.

You can return it if you want, I do not have an ETA when it will be done as of right now.

Did you purchase it directly from us?
If you did just contact our sales guys, if you did not, contact whoever you bought the unit from.
