Cool What not to do with the Edge.

So today I was filling up with gas and I decided to change my tunes. After the truck was all filled up I forgot the tune was still loading and went to start the truck. Turnd the key over and was like *****. The programmer froze up I waited acople seconds for it to continue but it didnt. So i pulled the plug out of the odb. Bad decision now I have to wait for the ford dealer to open monday to hopefully get my computer reflashed and get this thing running

I figured that might be a bad idea, but thanks for the heads up.

It takes less than 30 seconds to load a canned tune. Even a custom tune loads faster than a tank fill. Should have been done loading long before you were done filling.

reflashed f 150

What does the dealer charge you when reflashing? what kind of questions did they ask?
I might have to get mine reflashed. Had kind of the same problem. Have a new edge on its way to me, but the guy at edge told me it might need to be reflashed.
