If the PCM / ECU is working OK and not in need of repair DP-Tuner can flash it for you. If its in need of repair Python Injection does good work.

I dont know, they just cant as i was told. May have something w/ the SuperChip the previous owner installed. The ECU has been returned to stock but may have corruptions.

Called DP always answering machine.....

Here's what I did when I had mine reflashed: Click Here!

It worked fine. Mine was with a known healthy PCM, though. I had it reflashed automatic to manual programming. I don't know how that would work with a potentially damaged PCM. Maybe try email instead of telephone...

Just posted this in another thread: (I have gotten a couple of PCM's this way) always get the most current model.
