Hey guys,

I'm going on vacation so I won't be able to try anything for about a week or so, but Friday afternoon I updated my Trinity to the latest code, selected my vehicle, and plugged in the Trinity in my car. I didn't want to do anything but change the shift firmness so I chose Performance... and chose 'Modify Stock Tune' . It proceeded to save the original backup which took a very long time (much longer than it did on my 2012), when it finally reached 100% after about 10 minutes, it eventually asked me to 'please wait' at which point it stayed on that screen until the car finally shut itself off (can only sit in the 'Run' position for so long without actually running). So, I unplugged the Trinity and the car runs fine, nothing was done to it which was a sigh of relief. I never got to a point where I could choose what options I wanted, it basically appeared to freeze after downloading the original backup. Attachment attached... it's a picture i took while it was 'frozen' prior to the car shutting off.

Do I need to do some sort of reset on the Trinity? Do I possibly have something different about my 2013 SRT8 that is causing issues with the current code? Obviously i'm scared to do anything on the weekend or i'd have tried again

did you try rebooting it to make sure its OK?

When it locked up, I did unplug it and made sure my car would still run/etc... then plugged it back in. It booted up normally and showed no last tune (not married yet), etc.. so it's acting like nothing happened. I haven't touched it since, but I do see you posted a new update in a few other forums, maybe i'll try it next Monday.

Brian

Yes, please update it, it will make sure that same situation wont happen again

UPDATE: No go. The tool shows 1r10b as the version after reselecting my vehicle, and it attempted to make an original backup twice after selecting '91 Perf Tune' and failed to do so... so it quit and went back to the main menu. I was recording it on video via my phone starting a few seconds after it started with the original backup process, which i'll upload to youtube via a private link and put it here when done.

I noticed when on the 'Show Information' screen, if I scrolled down it still has my previous 2012 Charger RT AWD's VIN Number listed under 'Saved VIN', even though the tuner says it's not married. Not sure if that plays into anything or not, I definately returned it to stock before trading the vehicle away in May and it shows that it's not married. Thought i'd mention it.

failing to read the backup is fine as long as it does not let you load anything after that.

I have a problem that my transmission will not downshift unless at wot. I've used 93 and 91 tune. Returned to stock and shifts great. Also throttle lag is huge on any tune. Can you help?

Start a thread asking your question.

Is there something I should be doing though or is this a problem with the code? I've tried it once on 1r101a and twice on 1r101b and so far it's failed every time.

Do you have a battery charger you can connect to the vehicle while tuning? If so, give that a try and let us know what the outcome is. Thanks.
