What exactly is the programmer doing ,that it will not "take the tune"?Are you able to power the programmer up ?

I towed about 8000 lbs with the 60 hp tune with no problem. Do you have an EGT guage?

i do not have the EGT guage....i wanted to tune to the 60hp but it will not let me , i guess i will have to stay at 85 hp, until i get a reply from DS or a forum reply to help....Excursionist wrote:I towed about 8000 lbs with the 60 hp tune with no problem. Do you have an EGT guage?

What revision is this? when you power it up it will be in the top right...
