Just wait. If you follow the entire thread you will read that there are a few problems that we discovered and they are holding shipments until the problem is corrected.

I have a new problem. Last night I got 2 codes. Bank 1 lean and Bank 2 lean. Now, I don't know if it's a problem with the tune, or if I pulled a vacuum line loose when I did that supid silencer mod. Just wanted ya'll to be aware of it. I erased the code and it came right back, and now it's running rough at idle.

Which profile are you running #2 or #3? No codes here so far, running on level 2 and have pretty much left it alone, towed my boat this weekend and the truck hardly even knew it was there. A big difference from before.

Make sure everything is tight on the air tube between the TB and the MAF. Also make sure you didn't accidently split the tube or poke a hole in it.

Wow, this thread has exploded since I left for vacation!

I was one of the first ones to get a call from Rob, but the tuner was delivered during my 1.5 week vacation without my truck. I got back tonight and couldn't wait to install the tunes.

Installing the tunes was not a problem, but as soon as I started the truck after installing Level 2, the unit started over giving me the Hex Code, the 4 warnings left, and showed that I was on Level 0. The truck is definitely programmed with Level 2! The tune is great. I have sent Rob an email about this.

I agree with everyone else, once the bugs are worked out this is going to be a great product.

DO NOT TRY TO REPROGRAM THE UNIT!!!! Most of us are having the same problems with our units. Mine is stuck on level 3, and I had to tow with it the other day. It seemed to do fine, only sometimes it wouldn't shift out of 2nd gear if I had o/d off. However, if I had o/d on and was in o/d and turned it off, it would go to 3rd.

My experience

I got my Edge a week ago and I like the way it wakes up the truck. I did however have problems with my Edge locking up on reading PID to down load to the computer. When I went to read PID it froze. I had to unplug it and it reset it to zero. I did not mess with back light or colors. I had to un plug it and I reprogrammed mine without seeing this forum first oops. What are friends for. I sent an email to Rob and am waiting for a response. I also would like tranny temp, oil pressure since our trucks are a dummy gauge. Everything work good on installing software to computer but now that my truck is not returned to stock I can not use the updater. Stink to be me.

Zaairman, I am definitely not going to reprogram it since I want to keep my stock program. I figured out part of my problem. My Edge did not have a good connection with the OBDII port so every time I started the truck it vibrated just enough to disconnect the Edge. I just pushed on the plug a little harder and I no longer have this problem of the Edge resetting (4 warnings left, Hex code, ect.) everytime I restart the truck.

I also requested in my email that transmission fluid temperature and oil pressure be added to the guages.

Just so ya'll know, this had nothing to do with the edge.

I didn't have the time to fix this truck until last night. The vacuum leak had gotten so bad, that it would hardly idle. It was the rear 90* boot coming off the pcv valve tube. I knew I'd had a vacuum leak for some time cause of the a/c turning off on hills, but I couldn't find it. The 90* rubber bend was rotten, and the engine had sucked it into the intake. I could have stuck a pencil in the hole! I feel really stupid for not looking there, cause the pcv tube's boot rotted on my dad's V10 a year ago, and my uncle's about a month ago. But they're on the front...... So it wasn't the edge's fault. But now I'm getting p0401...... Kinda strange coincidence..... I wonder if it's the DPFE, or if it's related to the vacuum leak.

When you email Rob does he respond? I emailed him on July 2 about my beta unit that does not finish the initialization, and have not heard anything back. I have never got it to do anything, apparently not talking to my PCM. Should I call him? Or just assume he is really busy and does not have time to respond to emails?

My guess is that he's swamed with all of these problems. But he ususally answers emails pretty quickly, I'd try sending him another one.

My guess is also that it is a Holiday and most people do not work on Monday when holidays are on a Tuesday. Just my guess.
