The pcm circut board is diped in a wax and put in a aluminum case at the back of this case is a black plactic plug this is where all the chip style plug in to the pcm but you have to clean off the wax at this conect spot now water can cause a short if it was to get submerged.
If I have water in my cab, up to the bottom of my dash. I have bigger problems that a shorted PCM.
how did we end up on this??? itdoesnt really matter now does it i was trying to figure out which programmer to get i currently have the superchips and was wonderin about the others. I really dont want a chip b/c i dont think my motor could stand up at that much power. I already blew noe about a year ago. thanks guys,

so this would be the case stock as well, if i were to go into 3'+ water. then
Well, the way I read it, you got about 3 good suggestions for programmers.
Looks like the Predator had the most votes.
Maybe I missed something. We did not mean to hijack your thread. Sorry

I was searching for programmers a while back before I bought my chip and was going to go with the Predator. The Edge Evo is good but I kept reading about people having problems with the shifting on the latest models. Predator used to get a bad rap for way to high EGT's but that seems to be worked out now.

Just out of curiosity, what chip was it you where running? My bet is the first letter of it was either B or D

The chips have come a long long way in a year. JMO I would trust a chip programed to your computer code before a fits most programmer. Any thing can have problems. You can get many different programs on a chip to fit your needs. A programmer, you take what you get.
ok i think o got it now i finnally got my gauges in this weekend so i got rid of the six gun just thought i was not getting what i paid for so now i want something different not sure what thought was thinking a programmer but not sure now i would like to have something with different settings and not just a straight chip i have already been though one trans so i don't wanna fry another running around in a 100hp setting all the time so any suggetions would be appreciated.

Call or E-mail Jody Tipton (dp-tuner.com) and ask him this question. He will burn you a custom PCM, 4 position, or 6 position chip with the settings you want for your specific truck and for your specific mods.
