Have you tries unhooking the battery for a good 10-15 minutes? I know it sound wild but sometimes it works.
That depends on how your tuner set it up. I always use the biggest tune as the base just because its easier for me. It will run the base tune without the switch installed.

You only have to do a full flash to initially load the dsp5. When you say #1 tune do you mean #1 in the efi live custom calibrations? The tune that you will be running will be the one under engine calibration. Is this on your lly? Because if it is you can switch the tunes with your v2
The regular flash is only if you change something in the tune later on. The engine calibration tune is what it will run without a switch. If you change table A0146 to serial data then go into your v2 and select the lly pids then you can switch tunes without installing a switch. I ran mine like this for about a year cuz I was to lazy to install the switch:rofl: Works great
You need to do a full flash with DSP5, if you make changes to the "child" tunes. Found that out the hard way.
The reason the stereo must be disconnected is not because of power draw. It's to stop it from trying to "talk" to other computers if I understand right.
I pulled just the main power fuse for a customer's stereo, and it still would not communicate. Unplug the whole thing. It doesn't affect many trucks, but if you get one of those it does, it's a royal PITA.

so your saying full flash, and if i make changes then do the regular flash?
i pulled the fuse and it didnt work so i guess unplugging it u had success did u plug stock one back in? or did u just unplug the aftermarket one?
and yes it is a royal PITA
hahaha yes beech told me about how to do it
im so lazy to install the switch but its finally getting warm out up here so i might do it now!
Lol, I wondered if that would be better than the fuse. Did you tap in for power or acc into something else?
2 things..
At least with DSP you wont be flashing often
and if you do you can see if its a power or acc wire causing the issues and wire in a switch so you dont have to un plug it all the time.
Glad to hear it:happy2: those kinda things can get so frustrating
yes it was very frustrating!! but i am very :happy2: :happy2: :happy2:
thanks mcrat to pointing out the radio problem :thumb:
