TRUCK DOWN

[JAYHAWK]

I JUST TRIED TO INSTALL A USED EDGE PROGAMMER I BOUGHT ON E-BAY (I KNOW , I SHOULD KNOW BETTER) AND NOW THE TRUCK WILL NOT RUN. AFTER THE INITIAL POWER UP STAGE, AND FOLLOWING THE PROMPTS ON THE SCREEN THE PROGRAMMER DOES NOT RECOGNIZE KEY ON WHEN COMMANDED TO DO SO, ALSO I DO NOT HAVE A GLOW PLUG LIGHT ON THE DASH, AND NO CONTROL OF OD LIGHT ON SHIFTER. I QUICKLY CHECKED FUSES BUT RAN OUT OF TIME , I WILL DO MORE IN THE MORNING IN -20 WEATHER. I HOPE IT IS A EASY FIX, BUT THE GUT FEELING IS BAD. ANY THOUGHTS WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED. THANK YOU JASON

will it even try to crank or stay running at all?

Worst case scenario is you fried the PCM.

Here's help.

 

[bushpilot]

did you put it back to STOCK ?

Are you sure your truck doesn't already have a single setting chip installed in the pcm? My edge evolution will not recognize the key on prompt if I try to install programming with my chip installed.

TRUCK CRANKS, WILL NOT START. ALL FUSES GOOD. TRIED TO PULL CODES OR TALK WITH A SNAP ON HAND HELD AND NOTHING. NOT LOOKING GOOD. I DID FIND A 18K MODULE UNDER THE DASH. DO NOT KNOW IF IT IS HOOKED UP OR NOT. -10 RIGHT NOW A LITTLE COLD. TRY MORE LATER.

EDGE POWERED UP , PROMPTED ENTER, STARTED SAVING, KEY OFF, KEY ON, THEN ACCESSING PCM, AFTERWARDS SAID MAKE SURE KEY IS ON. NOW IT DOESN'T START, AND NO WAIT TO START LIGHT.
