Was the tune locked? You can't change a locked tune.

RE: Re: need help predator stuck on back up screen
what was the last thing you discussed with our techs?
if the truck will not start, and you bought the tool new, we'll pick up the PCM and get you fixed asap...

RE: Re: need help predator stuck on back up screen
Last thing we talked about was someone at diablo was going to flash a PCM with my calid and see if they could get a predator to recognize it my predator says vehicle calid not supported or something along those lines and it does not pull up a calid for tcm in the options section but somehow the predator set the PCM side back to stock and then truck no start
I purchased the tool new from moes performance back in 2009 worked great up until a week ago have receipt if needed for proof of purchase
Really need truck to work getting rides to work is hard Thanks in advance

RE: Re: need help predator stuck on back up screen
ok, if it is not running we need to call tag it and get the pcm here for a reflash, as getting the truck going is the first problem.
give us a call and we'll issue a call tag.
Thanks

good deal the stuff will come to me and i will see what is taking place.
Too bad you were not a little closer.
Sorry for the delay Like i said on the phone something happened where there was not a follow up. that is not common. and we will get this situation resolved.
