I hope this doesn't have anything to do with your putting "FORD RED" on the TB's calipers.

I see in the manual, that if you pull #11 and #17 at the same time, it turns the car blonde... and Hal become Helen...

Maybe I'm not reading the right manual...


Seriously, sorry to hear about your troubles. I'm going to be very careful to be pulling fuses or reprogramming until things settle and someone gets it just right. There are alot of conflicting stories out there.

Let us know Dodgegirl, just what happened...

Take care.

did you do a new SC update? I know when sc first came out they killed a couple hals and had to be re flashed at the dealer.

Jules,

This may be too little too late but did you try plugging your SC tuner back in? Possibly going back to stock in case you happened to scrog some data? The SC Tuner has the capability of going back to stock. I think I would have tried that before towing.

It's Monday morning and I am at work. NO not in the TB. Still being towed to the dealership. Zedd...Yes I went back to stock in case that was the problem. Besides that since its going back to the dealership I wanted to send it back there stock. I talked to the service manager to let him know its coming in and he said he will it was probably the computer. DUHH..he said he would reporgram the computer. Now my question is will the SC recognize this as my stock and still work? It is not the original stock program anymore.

Jules

Poor TB... needs TLC.

If you went back to stock then you will be fine, the SC should program w/o any problem.

What does everyone think about this: once Jules gets the car back should she treat this like it's the first time the SC was plugged in and read the stock flash onto the tuner?

I think these new cars are too smart to be any good! My friend just bought an 06 Magnum and it has so many plugs wires and shit on it, it's scary. I'm not impressed with cars I can not work on myself. What's the fun of a muscle car if it's such a wuss it poops out when you change a fuse? Any hoop... Sometimes the factory security system turns on on them and won't let the engine run. Just a thought.

I believe there are many of us that would be happy with a carb and points, tune the thing by ear or w/timing light. Ah the good old days are just that, now we have to deal w/HAL LOL

I think she should. Let the tuner "read" the car, and then start over with the tuning. That's what I would do. In fact, I did that. AFter I pulled #11, I let the tuner re-read the stock settings (I had put it back to stock BEFORE I pulled #11).

Ladydurango,

Adjusting carbs by vacuum, timing by ear, and points with a matchbook cover -- I'm GLAD those days are over. Now, instead of a spark plug lasting maybe 1,000 miles racing, they last almost 100,000 miles -- no points -- no carb -- no distributor -- boy, what not to love about today's cars. And, mine is just as fast as my old muscle car and gets twice the mileage and has A/C. If you want to spend your time under the hood, go ahead -- me, I want to drive...

Good Morning All my friends...Verdict so far. The service department at the dealership hooked it up to their computer and found 3 error codes. One...wireless communication code which the service manager said could mean worst case scenario the can bus???Next code was ASD...and the last had something to do with the steering wheel and incline???Got me on that one. He asked if i disconnected any wires to the steering column or saw any dangling? No...He went over all the fuses with a picture out of the manual and ALL were in the correct location and ALL were good. I called back and asked for a rental car and the receptionist said she would have to call me back after they diagnose the problem to see if it is a warranty issue. ( i have extended warranty)...30 minutes later she called me back and said my rental is ready for me to come pick it up...I HOPE they can resolve my TB issue really quick. I will post up what I find out when I find out for everyone to store away for future referencing..

Thanks again for all your help,
Jules
