......no way you can do a trial on it at all? i was hoping to get it set up this weekend...bummer...well i guess ive been dealing with the idle for a while now so a little longer wont hurt....
btw im the one that was emialing you from a yahoo account a week or 2 ago asking you about the tuner before i bought one, not sure if you remember, anyway got one and here i am:)

mainly i just wanted to see if you get the same error so i know im not doing anything incorrectly

id need a PCM flashed with your VIN to test it.....

oh okay, i though maybe you could just try and download it to a blank tool with my original(from a few posts ago) as the backup, thats when i get the error, never even make it to the vehicle.....im curious if you guys maybe copy and paste parts from other files to save time, like if a tune is written and you want similar results maybe instead of rewriting you just copy from another, so maybe accidentally something with a differenet vin got copied onto my file? just a thought i dont know, guess we got to wait for john:(,i think it will be worth it once we get it working

hey mike let me clarify since the problem may have gotten jumbled in the multiple posts, i think you can dupicate it with any tuner hooked up, even one set up for another vehicle, cause nothing ever gets transfered, i click to send the new file from john and click one of mine as the backup, my original stock or my modifed one, and the dsdownloader gives me the error about them being different numbers, so thats the end of it, nothing gets sent anywhere

i did get around it one time by clicking to send the file and clicking the SAME file as the backup, the downloader gave me a message that the file was identical, i clicked okay and it sent it to the tuner, then i went to my truck and tried to download it and it said the vin numbers were mismatched and it would not be written, so anyway i would never make it that far by doing it the way your supposed to i guess, the downloader catches it 1st

any thoughts john??

please repost the backup file and the tune Johan made for you.

Sorry been out of the office for a bit, the files you had there did not match so i made this one based from your original backup you posted.
Give it a shot....

thanks going to try it now...maybe somewhere along the way we just crossed files?...will let you know how it works, thanks

okay it worked this time...started it and it went to about 1150ish or so, not sure if thats my cold start or warm, its been sitting for half a day probably now, so if thats the cold start its way better than 1500, if that was my warm start then its about the same, i will find out tomorrow morning for sure, thanks

just curious, can i rename the files once on my pc? as long as i dont change extension of course, but just wondering now that i have a few if i can say call one "original", and yours maybe "modified idle" or whatever....i would think i can but want to make sure before i rename them and put the in a seperate folder or something, want to make sure they will still work if i need to reinstall them with different names...thanks again

you can change the name as you please, makes no difference.

okay thanks, i thought i saw on here somewhere when i was browsin around someone changed a name and then the tool didnt recognize it or something wierd.....cool....

well that was much much much better, looks about 1150ish on cold, and 850-900 on hot, appreciate it a great deal, i wouldnt even mind a tad lower especially on cold, but if thats all we can get im much happier with it for sure, if the cold and hot are related there is still room to go down a little since regular hot idle is 700 or so, so it really doesnt need to go higher than that on a warm start... up to you if we can push it further without ill side effects, either way im way happier with it already, that start up was about the only thing about this truck i didint like....let me know what you think as far as going more, i know your busy with people that have actual problems .....thanks so much for everything up to this point...thumbs up to you
