my AE arrived - first code pull
I just received my copy of Auto Enginuity (thanks Clay!!).
I didn't have a check engine light, but I checked for codes anyway. Here's what I got:
None came back after I cleared them. Then I did the KOEO test for grins. After that I went for a drive and logged some basic stuff.
I am curious if anybody has written any software or spreadsheets to graph and analyze log data.
Also, are there any good write-ups for the advanced features? For instance, Clay mentioned I can adjust for bigger tire size if / when I get them. All I've found so far is this:
ITP Powerstroke Diagnostic Hints
Thanks, I'm off to start reading the user guide!

If the codes didn't pop back up after clearing them, then don't worry about it.
As for how to do stuff, most people just post their questions here in the forum. Adjusting tire size is super easy, and myself or a few others can walk you through it.

Answer to your tire size quetion

After the pcm logs on you will get the vehicle selection box.
When it opens go to the bottom where it says System.
It should already say Enhanced Powertrain.
Click the drop down arrow and change it to anti lock brake then click on ok.
After the truck connects click on the test on board system tab.
Click the drop down tab next to the initiate button and select tire size.
When that opens there will be a left and right arrow on the far right next to the initiate button.
Click the right arrow to get a bigger tire, the left arrow for smaller tire.

As others said clear the codes and if they don't come back then no worries. If you have multiple codes, look for a common connection between all of them. This means reading through the diagnostic charts for all the codes before you even touch the truck. many charts will tell you what other codes to check and in what order as code A may be causing codes B C and D for example. So if you try and fix code D first it will be like a dog chasing its tail. other common denominators can be plug or connections point that are corroded or loose only Emissions (P) codes are required to trigger check engine light
