They did the upgrades, I told them that I would have to do some programming on it before it would run very well. I pulled off what they upgraded it with to EDIT and reload. I went to open up EDIT, and couldn't do anything with the file. I got a nice error message that said I can't do anything with this file.
I emailed Ken @ Carputing to see if he can help, I also called ALlen to see if I can get him to send me another PCM. Right now, my truck is at the delership sitting in a stall cause it won't run.

You've got an 03, and they loaded the newest flash for your VIN, correct? Then you downloaded the flash with Edit and tried to open it. Send it to my email and I'll try. Lets see if its a version / laptop issue.

BigTex, yes, that's correct. I tried it on my desktop with all 3 different versions I have, no luck. I emailed Ken today at about 4 ... no response yet.
John, I can't see a damn thing with the flash, EDIT doesn't even recognize it as a PCM file. Here's what I get when I open it:
Deezel, I didn't think to try EFILive. I can't try it since it's up at the shop locked up.
Ben, I've left a message with Allen, no response yet, I called him about the same time I emailed Ken, so I dunno. You are right though. I tried a PCM from Allen, he sent me one, and EDIT wouldn't let me connect to it. It was a different reason though, it said I didn't have any to program the PCM. I would guess the VIN was wrong on it or something, I dunno.
This is really annoying though .. I don't have my truck for a weekend that I really need it. This sucks ......
