Post Hidden MIL code

I was looking at the 4th gen Ram section, and I came across this thread.

https://dodgeforum.com/forum/4th-gen...rogrammer.html

If you look at post 5, mopowar says he’s beta testing a tuner for the 4th gen Rams. But when he programs the computer, it throws a hidden code. I’m just wondering if Dodge is trying to find out if people are reprogramming their computers so they can try to get out of paying for stuff through warranties. And I’m also curious as to how long they’ve actually done this, if it is new for 09, or it’s been around for a while. He says you can clear the code with the tuner, but obviously since it doesn’t set off any MIL's, you wouldn’t know it’s there unless you actually checked for any codes.

I checked mine for codes awhile back and none showed up. I've had my DSP since Dec.

It must be new for the 09's then. I checked my truck and nothing showed up.

Could be an 09 thing with the VVT and all added.
