PCM problem??
I'm a newbie to the site so first I would like to say hi to all. I have learned a lot from reading on this site.
I was trying to install my DP last night and when I was about done I realized I hadn't returned the truck back to stock on my superchips tuner (that was dumb). I tried to return the truck to stock but the superchips tuner said it had an error and wouldn't work. I figurd the chip had messed up the superchip so I uninstalled the chip and tried again and the truck flipped out. When I turn the key on it makes all sorts of sounds and I tired to start the truck and it will click when you turn the key but the engine will not turn over. Does anyone have any ideas?? Did I screw up my PCM?? Thanks

No I took the DP off before I tried to start it. I emailed Jody and he just called me back on, a saturday yet to boot, and he said it probably took out the PCM maybe the chip, and maybe the the IDM? or IDK?. He told me to take the PCM out of my dad's 2000 and see if it starts to see if the IDM? or IDK? is good or not. He said he will ship a new PCM and chip to me on Monday. All I can say is Jody is an excellent, excellent guy. 100% first class. All you guys saying he has great customer service were absolutely right. He is all you say and more. Hopefully the IDM? or IDK? is still ok. When my dad gets home I'll sawp his PCM in.

Welcome to FTE. That's the advantage in dealing with a quality company. Customer service goes a long way.
The IDM Jody was referring to is the Injector Driver Module. It's a little box up inside the drivers front wheel well that sends the electronic signals to the injectors.
Be sure and let us know how this turns out. It may help someone else down the road.

Well after I put a new pcm and idm in I got the truck running again. Going for a week without my truck really sucked. I got my DP in but my valvebody isn't in yet so I can't go see what it can do. Its supposed to be in on tuesday. I can't wait
