Installed Level 2 BD power pup, first step of install copies my original info to module then upgrades. Ran a few days, then attempted to install level 4, PP bombed, blank screen and then garbage, unable to restore original contents. Returned PP to BD and they reprogrammed. My original contents are lost, now I start with Lvl 2 as original program, how do I get back????

You will need to have a dealer flash your PCM as a "replacement PCM" as it will not recognize the non-GM programming. Have had to do it for quite a few people who blew out programming with POS tuners. Should cost 50-80 bucks.

I was afraid that would be the answer, hate to go to dealer and have VIN associated with this problem, worried about repurcussions down the line but if I must, I must


Thanks for reply

You might check with Steve Cole/TTS also, he might be able to hook you up too.

Don't know Steve, but am on speaking terms with one of his henchmen (Mike L) perhaps if I use him as a liaison.....again thanks
