    Ya, thats way too high. The tuners around here don't charge that much for a re-flash.

    If there is any update to a tune it should be free upgrade no $300 . I would contact Papa Ree about that .

    you may be better off picking up a HP Tuner and learning what settings it is to adjust and do it yourself. Usually this is a minor update and charging you another $300 is wild.

    No that's why I posted on here to see if anyone else would be willing to help. I was going to go the route of a new trickle charger if I didn't get any help. Paying $300 is ridiculous in my opinion.

    Papa Ree hooked me up with the same tune I am currently running with the file for an AGM alternator voltage output at no extra cost to me.

    Just installed the tune and now charging at atleast 14.1 volts.

    Many thanks to Papa Ree for the help.
