Do you have a code reader for these trucks?

No sir, 94.5 no OBD II port. I think it has something to do with the tunes tbh.

Sorry late response dinner time, but I got my tunes from FFD, they are the PHP Titan unlock tunes. Truck runs without tuner won’t run with it. I get a Wait to start light for like .2 seconds then it just jumps to a Check Engine light. That’s with the Hydra. Without it I get the normal 20 second WTS light

you don’t mean literally 20 seconds do you? Even when it’s 15 degrees I don’t get it that long

Did you 'over' clean the contact pins on the PCM?

94.5 has a obd11 port under and left of the glove box. You may need to have it flashed to open port.
