    I have it installed on three machines.

    Dell E6410 i7-620m notebook (at work)
    Dell E6410 i5-520m notebook (at home)

    I also installed on my desktop i7-6700k so I can look at the logs on the 34" ultrawide screen :D

    All three are running Windows 10 64-bit. So far no issues with the software yet.

    If I was a betting man, I'd say p219a, p219b or both.

    Bing Bong. We have a winner.

    P219B

    Came on at 116.7 miles since the S/C and UCON was installed.

    I'm set to get a software update tomorrow morning. According to @HolyHandGrenade the rich problem is fixed. From what Scott said before, I gathered he was also working out the P219 issue so hopefully tomorrow's update fixes both.

    Email Gadget your cel code and he will reply with what to do. This has become a very common issue amongst our 2012+ crowd so I would imagine he will have Scott email you with instructions on how to load the revised tune. I am also scheduled to get the update tomorrow.

    It goes like this: Scott emails you a couple links to download software to your WINDOWS laptop. Once installed you schedule a time with him via email. (Make sure you have good internet connection!) You send him the password from your downloaded software and he remotes into your laptop, connects to the UCON, checks out how it's been running, then uploads a new tune if needed.

    Yes it should! My truck runs fine on stock ECU and UCON EXCEPT for the cels.
    I think there were small changes to the ecu for the 2012+ models that aren't playing nice with the ucon. I'm confident a few software tweaks/revisions and we will all be set.

    As long as it doesn't blow up, I'll keep doing these WOT runs and sending logs.

    Around 11:1 @ WOT

    My gauges match what's in the logs now.

    Before the update I had some sputtering at certain throttle positions and RPMs. That stuff is all fixed now.

    I think I can safely clean all the soot off the tip of my tailpipe now. 11:1 is still rich but not nearly as bad as before when it was somewhere in the 9s.
