Got a 2003 f350 that ive had tuned before. Updated to 1r09b for the tcm tunes. Pcm wrote ok. After tcm got to 100 percent it told me key of then on. Did that. Then it counted down from 3 two or three times then it popped the message "write fail-fail-safe" it gave me the option to restore or force. What i do? Had to restore.

Restored fine. So just retry? Just didn't feel like taking 50mins to retry the whole process if it was gonna fail again -.-(25mins write 25 min restore) I Will retry next weekend and let you know how it works out. God dam ford programming I swear its the slowest of them all....Cant say that for the truck I can run low to mid 13's in the quarter mile on your extreme tunes =)
