    Are you able to read the tune file in the PCM, If so Save it before over-writing it with any thing. You may need to click on the Show Calibration Detail button in the tune tool and check to see if the operating systems is the same as the tune file you were trying to load. Does the stock tune file have the same OS?

    Cheers Scotty.

    If the OS #'s are the same you should be able to open both tunes (open one for alternate comparison). Then you can copy the segments from your current tune to the stock one - retaining your tables etc. Then flash it into the PCM.

    Sounds good in theory anyway
