    Yeah - I saw it mention C6, but was wondering if anyone knew how much / what was put into the TBSS code from the C6. Just a fan segment swap? If so, can that only be done with a Tech II? Assume that this means there is a PWM driver in all the ECM's (06 - 08) which is already in there and just needs to be turned on / mapped to it?

    We are doing this today in a couple of hours. Have all the parts, and I verified that the cal# provided by Alvin is the same (and not newer/higher) than what is currently in the truck which is really good. So they did it with a Tech2 you think? Because we have Tech2s here, I had no idea that can be done... Let's see how it turns out

    I guarantee you its not a simply Tech II flash, probably copied code from an 07 to the 08/09 OSs in the correct areas using a hex editor.

    That sounds more realistic. Well I hope it goes well, we left it for tomorrow.

    Full flash the correct MY file, updated with the changes made by their existing tune, and you should be good to go.

    Thanks a lot! So FULL FLASH the file provided (what is an MY file?) and I will try to script it or manually make the changes. I will be using the file for an '07 TBSS for EFILive of course from the list in the link a few posts back. Wasn't sure if it had to be full flashed so I am glad you told me. I haven't full flashed anything since I locked up two SSR controllers in a row several years ago. Hopefully we have come a long way since then...

    Let me know if you need a hand, should be a full flash of the custom efans tune with the custom normal tune changes copied over. Do the wiring and the install, should be set.
