Usually the mismatch shows up after a pcm change, because the pcm was flashed incorrectly.


Battery good? All fuses and relays good?

Yes battery is good and I switched relays around, I didn't test them. The only thing I have done was try to download a supercharger tuner a couple weeks ago...It said it already had a tune of some sort...360$ gone

Try to use the tuner to return to stock. You can't load multiple tunes. This maybe the cause of the mismatch code, and the others.
