Pcm question

[reddevil78]

What do you do when your truck locks up and doesn't start when you return to stock but the stock program was corrupted. I towed my truck in at 8:30 am to the dealership and they didn't even tough it today that's because my appointment was at 8 am. I'm really disappointed in them but what can I do.
All I can do is wait on them I guess, my warranty will be up in 4 months and I wanted to get everything checked out from manifold to tranny and everything in between. But truck goes to run positing but brakes are locked up and won't start also says radio is locked. My question is could it be my pcm is just swiped and needs reprogramming or could it be more than that?

The stock program was corrupted??? Since the software was jacked up the dealership will probably charge you to reflash the PCM. Hope this works! Otherwise it may take a reman PCM that the dealership "may" cover under the 8/80 coverage IF you are lucky. Also sounds like whatever tuner you have will need sent in to be repaired/programmed to erase the corrupted stock software programming.

I had the SCT Chrysler programmer and I wasn't too fond of it didn't have any feature but the tune. And yes the stock program that was supposed to be backed to it was corrupted I'm assuming and it made my truck go into limp mode when I tired to flash it back.

If the PCM is hosed, I'll be selling my OEM PCM on ebay soon. It's from my '16, but I think it is the same as the '14 PCM and I bet the auction will stay pretty cheap. I'll post about it in the for sale section this weekend if you're interested.

Thanks brother but I'm waiting if these ******* will cover it under warranty. I'll keep your offer in the back burner though. Wife's not to happy with me right now so my truck allowance is at $0 lmao

Lets see, you re-flashed your PCM with a programmer and it corrupted the back-up stock tune, dude, they ain't gonna cover that on the warranty because you were the reason the PCM was corrupted. Not to be harsh and blow smoke up your ass like Hilliary, but think about it? Good luck.
