After checking the usual suspects I noticed the operation to be normal as long as did not touch the steering wheel tilt mechanism and would leave the wheel in the 'up' position. The 'down' position would cause the fast blinking. The dealer checked it out and confirmed a pinched wire. It's fixed now.

Supposedly adds 50hp and 108 ft/lbs of torque, but no information on fuel mileage improvement. Does anyone out there have any experience with the Hypertech programmer? It's less expensive than the Superchip alternative, and plugs into the data port underneath the dash to reprogram the factory chip. It also retains the factory default settings in the event you opt to return to the factory settings. Costs about $325. Anyone have any experience with it? TIA Don PS I'm mostly interested in getting a few more mpg's, the added hp and torque is of lesser importance to me, though it would be nice to be able to pass someone in 6th gear without having to downshift. ------------------------------ From: "Lloyd Rantanen" Subject: Re: Subject: Trailer wiring Date: Fri, 14 Jul 2000 15:12:09 -0600 >From: "Erik Marquez" >Subject: Trailer wiring >Date: Mon, 10 Jul 2000 20:41:26 -0800 >Hello all, been on the list for some time now, but been standing on the side >for a few months now.

The bundle should have all the wires you need to hook up a 7-pin. If you take off the cover for the fuse panel under your dash there will be another bundle there for hooking up a brake controller. Is there a package in the glove box with a wire bundle and some instructions? If not a trip to the Ford dealer to get this will help. Everything I needed was included in my truck (F350 SD CC 4x4), all I had to do was connect wires. ------------------------------ From: "Lloyd Rantanen" Subject: Re: Subject: Trailer wiring Date: Fri, 14 Jul 2000 15:14:35 -0600 Forget what I wrote previously, I posted before reading the part about a 97 F350, directions apply to 99 and up. sorry, Lloyd ------------------------------ From: "family email" Subject: Re: 2000 Model PSD chip programmer by Hypertech Date: Fri, 14 Jul 2000 16:19:07 -0700 Don, If your looking 4 strictly mpg improvement , at best its 1 to 2 mpg improvement at worst no improvement. But the feel of the improved throttle responce is great. Also if your truck has a trip computer it will throw the average mpg out of wack to the tune of about 8 mpg to the good Ken O > Don > > PS I'm mostly interested in getting a few more mpg's, the added hp and > torque is of lesser importance to me, though it would be nice to be able > to pass someone in 6th gear without having to downshift. ------------------------------ End of 97up-list Digest V2000 #119 ********************************** ---------------------------------------------------------- Ford Truck Enthusiasts 1997 and Newer Truck List Send posts to 97up-list ....To access the rest of this feature you must be a logged in Registered User Of Ford Truck Enthusiasts
