Just purchased a 2021 Tremor, had it shipped al the way from Wichita since it was one of the only two silver trucks in this 1/2 of the country.
I tried to install the ProCal tune over the weekend and apparently totally screwed up. I have 3 DTC codes, the truck wont start and I can get it back to the stock tune! Of course the tech line is not available over the weekend so I had to wait 3 excruciating days to call Ford performance this morning. They just told me that I may need to have it towed to the dealer. I knew I should have had the dealer install for me but I figured how hard could it be, I've done it on other vehicles?

Does the truck need to be "on" to load files? Did it possibly time out while doing so?

Did you hook up a battery charger?

Yes I did, I had 12.6 volts when I started. The tech at Ford Performance cant duplicate the error.....yet. So seems that they cant figure it out either. I really don't want to have it towed to the dealership but I do want my brand new truck back!!!

After 1 week from my initial call, Ford Performance just told me that I need to bring it to the dealership to be re-flashed back to stock. All the Ford dealers here in CT are backlogged 3+ weeks for service appointments!!
Unfortunately I had the worst customer service ever from Ford Performance. Its ridiculous that they only have one person handling these issues. I wasted an entire week waiting for them to get back to me, now I'll be without a vehicle for a month.
