I am using an OBA. When Jody live tuned my truck he did the 'no codes'. After the tuning I took the OBA off thinking I wouldn't need it and instantly set the SES light. I still have to run the OBA to prevent that, which is no big deal, but I think that's the question at hand. If they are no codes tunes, why do I still get one of those 3 codes if I don't run an OBA?

I have different tunes on my chip. On my ScanGauge, some of them show ~15psi max, others show 21psi max (where my OBA is set). At idle, some show -2psi, others show 0. Obviously, there was some fooling around with that in the tunes I have.

Bottom line is you need to see which code you are getting.

P0238 Voltage code
P1248 Sensor code.
The codes tunes only adjust for the
p1248
p1211
p0478


I am going to just quote my post..

I am not conveying properly the explanation of what to do.

I would call Jody so he can tell you over the phone. For him it's much easier to just explain over the phone.

Fair enough. It doesn't bother me, I was just wondering why. It is what it is.

I'm saying it's what I had to do. And I know of quite a few others that still had to add an OBA even with the no codes tunes.

Dang it looks like you dont care for a DP tuning. By the way you forgot the 80 race and the 80 ex smoke and also the 80 over 400hp but not much over. Maybe we can get more soon.

Wow, I just read this entire thread and I'm still thinking it's in Greek!
I now have to go back and read about each one of the acronyms you guys used!
I'm wanting a tuner but not if I have to spend three days just to read a thread about why/why not to buy it. LOL
