First question, DP
OK, here's the first question I have, it's about the DP Tuner. I have already written an email to Jody but just in case this is an easily solved problem, or maybe not an uncommon one, I figured it couldn't hurt to ask if anyone has experienced this;
I finally got around to installing the DP Tuer last week after having removed the PCM to check our codes were compatible. I think I did a pretty good job of cleaning off the connector on the board and kept it dry so don't think there would be any damage to the pcb itself. I put in the chip and hooked up the controller only to find prog's 1,2&3 work. Brendan had at least four, plus the ) post for no-start but I cannot get anything other than 1,2&3. It seems to me there's a couple missing, or just not being recognized. Any ideas, similar problems?
Thanks in advance, David.

The programs may be on there, but the switcher display may not have been properly programmed to recognize all the positions. Its an easy fix that Jody could walk you thru over the phone if thats the case.

Since you swapped switchers you need to reprogram your switcher. Check this link out.

Haha, yeh. I spent 15 years in SoFla, we were almost neighbors. Did a few trips through your neck of the woods. Thanks again for the input, 'twas me being dense, not anybody else.
I reprogrammed the controller as instructed, and everything works just tickety boo so far. Just gotta try the n/s now and I'm happy. A new jug o Rotella for the old gurl next week if I can find the time......
