Engine Light And Codes

Put Bullydog Triple Dog Tuner In My 03 F250 7.3 Also Have Banks Quick Turbo Installed. Keep Getting Codes, Even When I Take Out Tuner And Put Truck Back To Stock. Overboost Code Always Comes Up Along With Others. Is This Normal? Truck Runs Really Good Otherwise.

The computer will store codes. Did you clear the codes when you put the truck back to stock?

Check the codes and post them here. How much boost are you getting at WOT?

Certain codes will ALWAYS come up as a soft code if you have a chip/tuner. If you are getting the overboost, maybe look into get the OBA from ITP diesel, a site sponsor. It lets you still build boost, but it fools the computer into thinking you're in the "approved" zone of safety

That ove rboost code, if it's a p1211 it could also be the icp is running out at the top and an OBA isn't going to stop it. If I were you, I would sell that Bullydog to some less informed person than you are about to be, and get a DP tuner(probably for less than you will make from selling that POS). Jody can write the tune so the parameters are changed as far as the query that the PCM is making with regards to ICP, and it will eliminate the code from coming up. Call DP tuner. Their link is in my signature. You won't regret it.
