Fuse #12 under the dash is OBD plug power. Also anything marked IDM or PCM.

Batteries charged, cables making good connection? Sounds like a power problem to me. I'm not a tuner guy but I don't think the tuner changes anything that would clear the instrument panel display.

Save your new ford flash on your phone/computer/flash/thumb drives!

well, the truck is still at my job.SCT said they had to let there engineers look at the problem with what I sent them via computer. I know I'm going to have to have it towed to the Ford dealer for a re flash. My Livewire screwed up and it will not return my software back into the truck.Guess SCT will be getting their Livewire back and I'll be getting a different monitor

Did you try disconnecting both batteries for 10-30 minutes with the headlight switch left on?

Worth a shot.

Well there's a old saying, lessons learned are like bridges burned, you need to cross them but once. Josh I have to hand this one to you, disc'd the batteries for 1 hour with the headlights on and the truck took the down load.Thanks again you guy's here are the best and I'm proud to be part of FTE and I let others know about the site all the time. Now I have to figure out how to get my GMC home lol and make up my sons dirt bike ride with him. Getting crazy over these trucks just doesn't pay .Thanks again.........Bill
