Transmission Firmness Write Failed

2012 Charger R/T. I had the 91 tune already loaded and made parameter mods such as turning off MDS and adding Throttle Boost. So all I did was go into Modify Tune and selected Transmission Firmness.

The tuner went through the build tune process and then proceeded to the write. It went through about 3 cycles of turn ON and Turn OFF ignition during this write phase. It then decided to provide the message, Write FAILED.

Tuner installed original backup. I then re-installed the 91 tune with the MDS off and Throttle % of 10. This write was SUCCESSFUL. I left as is to get some feedback.

Thanks

I dont know. Because when I connected the intune to my computer, before I can look it updated to 1r01o.

So now the unit has version 1r01o. Should I try Transmission firmness option again with this update?

Mike can you let me know what to do here?
My system has the latest update, so is it OK to give it another try?

Mike,

Have you looked at the file you requested?

I have an update:

I restored my stock tune and then re-installed the 91 tune. However before writing the 91 tune, I modified the parameters including Shift Firmness and Disabled Traction Control.

The tune built and then wrote to the PCM without any issue. TCM is off because I smoked the tires at WOT. :mrgreen:

But, and a big But...The Brake light, Traction control lights and some other dash light remain on after starting the car. I also dont really feel much of a difference in the shifting, although the inTune has a * next to Shift Firmness as though it were modified. So two things

1) Why are those dash lights still on?
2) What differences in shifting should I notice?

Thanks

Its all up to date, should be fine.

The lights are normal with TC disabled, as it disables ABS as well.

Thanks
