Who knows at this point what happened. I am just correcting this statement:
AND MIKEL I HAVE NO OTHER SOURCE TO LOCK THE PCM BECUZ I HAVE NEVER LET ANYONE TOUCH MY PCM AND THE ONLY THING WAS ACCESSING THE PCM IS THE PREDATOR.
The dealer accessed the PCM with their tools. And only they know what they did to it. And they have no incentive to be honest about it.

A dealer is not going to have a computer technician in-house. They are going to have a mechanic with a tool and a procedure to follow. If the procedure doesn't succeed then they replace the part. They aren't going to troubleshoot and diagnose a PCM because they don't have the personnel to do so.

Dealers are definantly ANYTHING BUT honest!

In general, they lie, cheat, and steal to get them the MOST profits!!! They are not and never will be your freinds!! :evil:

And they are zapping you for hundreds of dollars for a $40 chunk of electronics and 10 minutes of labor. Ugh.

YEP! Should be against the law!! At least the chunk of electronics from Diablo gives you some control of your engine back!
