Default Flashed my baby to Death!! HELP



It''s a long story I''ll try be brief. I took my car into Ford of Clermont, right outside orlando, on 4/19 because it kept stalling while driving. While there, the dealership fashed my PCM, yet didn''t tell me that they did it. Because of the way this dealership handles after market mods, I always flash the car back to stock and put the factory airbox back on...needless to say when I went to go put the CAI back on this weekend ( Yes i know it''s been 6 weeks), i put the custom tune back on and lo and behold...the car won''t start. I get P2101 andP2107 codes ( Throttle body sensor and motor). I tired to put the stock tune back on...same issue. I immediately emailed john at Tunable Induction to see if he could help. He called me Saturday and told me if I got the new code from the dealer, he''d have me a working tune in 5 minutes ( on a side note... John has been helpful from day one...responding to requests while his shop is closed...and on holidays). I went to the dealer this morning, and asked if they could tell me what they flashed it to...much to my surprise...they won''t give it to me. Due to the fact that i work for a living, i couldn''t wait around for the service manager or the owner to show up. I went to another orlando dealer to see if they could help and they won''t even touch the car stating that since they don''t knowwhat Ford of Clermont did, they would just compound the issue... I need advice and/or ideas on how to get the code for my car. A buddy of mine said that his HP tuner might be able to read it...anyone know if that''s true? My stock PCM was KNV0.

HELP

Oh man, sucks to be you, in a early morning you made me depress. I really have no clue how to help you. Why don't you take your anger and put it on the dealer, tell them after they flashed your car now you got problem, and force them to fix it or you'll sue them, then ask for manager till they get scared and fix it with a free oil change next time.

What kind of tuner do you have? You should be able to read your new strategy code and give it to the tuner. (if a changed strategy code is your problem)

If he has an aftermarket intake an tune how is he going to
"force them to fix it or you'll sue them, then ask for manager till they get scared and fix it with a free oil change next time"
It's not their problem an updated flash from Forddoesn't work with his intake and tune

I saw him sad so tried to lift his spirit. If he already flashed it back to stock and put the stock intake on how would they find out.

If you pull the strategy your tuner can build you a new tune easy as pie.
