Problem with A/C after program with Predator

My Dad's A/C will not work now when it is taken out of stock mode and put into tow and performance mode with predator. This is not the first time that we have used the predator but this is the first time that the A/C doesn't work other than in stock mode.The only time the a/c will work is when we are at a red light. When I program it back into stock mode the A/C will work just fine. I know that there is a combination that you have to do sometimes when changing the program and I'm pretty sure I found that combination here but now I can't seem to find it. I know that the A/C is not low on freon because it wouldn't work in stock mode either. Please help A.S.A.P.
Thanks in advance

You need to let the truck idle for 1 minute without any accessories on then let it idle one minute with A/C on. Drive the truck so the A/C can relearn when to cycle.

The info is part of the relearning after the battery gets disconnected. Should be in the tech folder.

I was looking in my Dad's shop manuals and couldn't find anything on that. I may not have been lookin in the right areas. I'll take a look again and see if I can find it.
I was askin because if it came from a thirdparty book or something then I would be interested in buying it . Bye the way, I did like you said and all is well now. My dad is now a happy little kid at heart again.

P.S. When we were having the problem with the A/C we were at a rest stop in between Hillsborough and Jacksonville, FL. So I called the tech support at Diablosport and he wanted me to mail the predator back to him. He didn't know anything about the learn process with the a/c. I was surprised about this because I figured that they would know something about it. I even told him that there was a combination of things that we are supposed to do to make the A/C work but that I couldn't remember what they were and that was why I was calling him.
