I've lost my Banks Automind Programmer. The last time I used it I put the high performance "sport" calibration on my 2004 Ex V10. Now, I want to go for Mike's 5 Star Tuner. However, I understand I won't be able to use the 5 Star Tuner before restoring Ford's stock calibration. But how can I do this without my Banks Programmer?

I'd be grateful for your advice, please. Thank you!

 

I suppose you can go to the dealer and have them reflash your PCM. Cannot think of anything else.

 

Thanks, Magnus, for your prompt response. The issue is I am in Germany and no Ford dealer knows about Excursions...

 

Maybe 5 STAR can help by pre-loading a generic stock tune - not sure if that is possible though.

 

Yes, that sounds like a good idea. May other forum members know whether this is possible. Thx again!

 

I'd call Banks or go to their website- their customer service is usually fast and knowledgeable...
