Default Somone shoot me please I'm going to cry

I've really done it this time. I went out to the truck and decided to try 93 octane setting on the hyper tech. IT started to read and then I had to go real quick so since it was just reading I unpluged. this is where you shoot me. How stupid was that. Anyways truck ran fine. I decided to try it again. The hypertech said that it had been interupted and proceeded to try and write the program. When it finished it gave an error code #70 and said call support. I though oh ****. Try to start the truck and nothin. **** **** **** **** ****. It tries to turn over but won't. The cluster says no bus. Now I'm ready to cry. Iv'e tried everything. I unpluged the pcm and pluged back I checked all the fuses what else can I do? I have a suspision that I'll be taking it to the dealer and having them reflash the pcm.

I went and did the cluster test and got 920, 921 and 999. They all say that there's no signal from the PCM. I'm hoping that I can just have it reflashed at the dealer. I'm also hoping that hypertech will replace the programmer. Probably not since it was my f*** up and I'm not the original owner. Dammit

Yep I think you need to pony up at the stealership, unless you can find a cheap used PCM you can swap in. Check www.car-parts.com I've always had luck there.

you'll probably still need to contact Hyper Tech and prostate yourself to their good graces.

Good Luck.

THE DEALER CAN REWRITE THE EPROM! BUT YOUR HYPERTEC IS PROBALY TOAST IN THE FUTURE BEFORE YOU PLAY HAVE A BACK UP! THE STEALERSHIP SHOULD FIX YOU UP! HAPPY NEW YEAR GUYS AND GALS!

the dealer is going to charge me 46$ to reflash it. I don't think I can find an PCM for that.

46 bucks ain't bad. Hope you didn't pay too much for the programmer though [&o]
