*Closed* 20% Off Supercharger Group Buy 2nd Gen 4.0 Engine

SD card inserted into tuner and getting error. I think the SD is no good.

 

i got this one too. i think i updated the GT first. i formatted the SD then updated the GT through usb and PC, then selected the vehicle. IIRC?

formatting is possibly not required - i did it while troubleshooting and it's actually, probably a bad idea. i mentioned it because i'm not sure if it's required to get the GT to update. maybe try updating the GT through your computer and if it doesn't work you can try again after reformatting.

after reformatting, i think i did:

1: SD card in GT and connect to PC
2: update GT through Light Duty Update Agent (software already installed, rebooted)
3: I think there's some update process that goes down on the GT after it gets the software update
4: After GT does it's update thing you can reconnect and i think you get to the select vehicle bit.

I did a few reboots after installing the software, after getting error message, etc.

 

+1.

Good to know, since that's my plan.

 

I'll give it another shot. Decided to work on the gauge pod. Just one gauge for now. The other one will be here Wednesday.

 

Awesome! I tried it again and was able to get it to work. Now I need to plug it into the truck.

 

I didn't end up finishing today due to some family obligations.

I'm on the page of the instructions where it talks about running the pump wiring into the fuse box. I'm going to remove the fuse box and tap that wire underneath vs. using the fuse tap. I want to keep all of my aftermarket wiring as clean as possible.

 

ive almost got the tune. the problem im running into now is the device is saying you must have at least 12 volts to continue. the device is stating i have 11.9 volts but checked the battery at its at 12.15 volts. I'll leave the charger on over night and try again in the morning. thanks for everyone's help

 

All this trouble with the BD tuning software has me nervous

I think I'll give the folks at Magnuson a call and work through the differences between the current BD tune and the TRD supercharger flash (at one time) available from the dealer. I'm wondering if a flash of the TRD map might be a safer route.

 

^^^ a fellow member suggested this to me also

 

Stupid question... I'd have to do the BD tune, then take my truck in to Toyota to get their turd flash?

 

dont quote me on it, but I think its ok to drive once installed as long as you dont get into boost or drive crazy...keep it slow and steady and you should be good I "THINK"

 

No.

 

Thanks for the data point. I'll invest in a >=10A battery charger.

 

It should be one or the other BD tune or TRD Flash. And finding a dealer thats ok with doing the flash.

 

Are your running a hidden winch? Curious about this setup and your clearance problems.

 

Thanks fellas! I do have a dealer who will do it, but the trouble is getting the truck there after I install it. The closest dealer to me is a solid two hours. Not a super long distance, but highway is required.

 

Ah. Crap. I have an Aluminess bumper which is a little fatter than the Pelfreybilt but I could have similar "unforeseen issues". Any pics of the problem?
