Had problems before with tranny tune. Update from bully dog fixed it and couldn't be more happy! On the downside, it now switches between night and day mode randomly ever 15-45 seconds.
Anyone else with the BD have this problem? Calling tech support tomorrow, just wondering if anyone else has experienced this?

Mine does it also. Keep forgetting to ask about it.

I'm having the same problems, did you just do an update or did Bully Dog send you a new tune for it?

Sorry for the slow reply, in the process of moving and havnt had time to do anything.

Yes, I just updated my unit from the bullydog updater on my laptop.
Have not had a chance to call tech support yet about the day/night mode problem.

The tranny problem consisted of the truck not shifting into 1st gear at a stop and taking off from a stop in 2nd gear. Has not happened since the update from website.

I run a Hemifever tune in my 12 model, but use my old BD as a gauge bc I like it better than the DS Trinity as a gauge (it's smaller). Mine has done this same thing occasionally (brightening up when on night mode). It really is annoying as it does startle me. Mine did it 8 times in a 30 minute drive once but that is the most it's done it. Otherwise it just does it once or twice every now and then. I am curious about what the cure for this issue is too.
