The dpc code has to match. The 4 digit code talks to the strategy/year. That's my understanding. We put a tde1 in for our naw6 and think it runs better too

Ok, so the one that went in is an AWL4. I just have to have that info for the chip reburn, correct? And Bryan, I think the TDE1 was the latest for the OBS truxks, correct?

I always have been asked by tuners which one I have. My 96 had the tde1 and the 97 OX had the awl4. My tunes were programed for the tde1 so I put the 97 mare's tde1 in the OX. I don't think its 'year' related.

Yes the dpc 202 is the obs automatic hardware code and the tde1 was/is the latest strategy for that. The dpc-203 is the manual hardware code but off hand I don't know it's latest strategy.

The TDE1 is the latest for auto trans. The MLE1 is the latest for manuals.

Bill, is the AWL4 for the auto? Seems to be ok in my truck but wondering how that will affect tuning?

I have searched every PCM code list I can find, and I can't find an AWL4.

Well guys I am a damn idiot. i have no idea how I came up with AWL4. I looked this morning and Bill determined for me that its a manual PCM. Code is ALF4...sheesh. Now I have something to work with. You guys have been epic helping me on this one. I am happy that it's a manual PCM AND it's a '96.

I'm also a idiot, I just remember it wasn't a TDE1 in the OX, called Aaron and he said it would be OK to put the TDE1 in from the Mare so I could use my tunes. My spare was a TDE1 so when I broke down this past summer it worked with my tunes also.
