I had the same thing happen to me before when I was updating my tuner. Call their customer support (I think the number is on the back of the tuner). They will fix it for you over the phone.

Go onto www.flashpaq.com and post your problem in the dodge ram section. Ron from superchips will help you out.

Forgot to mention that you will have to register first before you can post on the flashpaq forum but it is very easy to register.

Why can't you call just because you are in Egypt?

800 numbers are frequently restricted to certain areas, like the US or North America. Many times companies don't give non-toll-free numbers so overseas customers are left without a phone number to call.

Egypt...really? I've been there many times while in the Navy. Stopped in Hurghada several times and went to Alexandria and Mount Sinai. I also had trouble with my flashpaq tuner. I just today sent it back to them to have the usb port repaired. I was having terrible connection problems and when I tried to download the latest update, it threw my truck out of whack. I had to restore it to stock before shipping it off to them.
