trouble with 2013 Durango R/T

Jumping right in. After downloading the firmware for the Trinity for the 2013 duragno 5.7, I hooked it up to my ride and tried the 93 octane install. Took it down the road at a nice easy pace, and after a mile all my gauges went dead and just about all the warning lights came on. Still drove ok all the way back to the house. re-installed the factory settings and now the ABS light stays on. Tried re-installing the 93 octane and stepped on the gas, only this time all my problems happened in less than a quarter mile. went back to factory setting and ABS light still on. Unhooked the trinity, did a test drive, and parked it.
2013 Durango R/T still needs some work. Let me know when it will be safe to drive it again.

Did you make any modifications to the tune?

I did not make any changes until this morning. I put in tire size but that was it. No change from first post.

Same size tires. everything is stock. I have a CAI that I would like to put on and an exhaust in a few months.

try restoring the original backup, and not make any adjustments to the tune. There's no reason to make a tire adjustment unless you actually changed the tire.

All my troubles happened before I changed the tire size. I input the tire size to see if it made a difference.

please restore the stock tune, and load this update, then go ahead and change the tire size again, it should set the light off.
Thanks

I can download the tune but am not able to install it. the downloader can not recognize it on my computer, it doesn't even look for .crom extensions.

Make sure to restore the original backup first, and click "Update Tool" on the DS Downloader. Once you select "Update Tool" CROM files are the only extension the DS Downloader looks for.

I have restored the factory tune on my vehicle. The DS Downloader finds my tool but will not find any .crom extentions. Is there someone I should call, this back and forth on this thread is really starting to make me feel stupid, for I am either not explaining my problem or you are not understanding what I am explaining.

are you clicking the update tool button on dsdl?
it will only look for .crom files when you do that.
