The AutoCals that we received, needed a software downgrade, in order to work with the current software release (ie. would not be compatible with what you would download on your end). We shipped out a large number of them before being aware of this, but have held the rest, until the update became available.

 

This will save headache on both ends. The rest are going out tomorrow.

I believe Superchips is the only hanheld that you can turn off/on AFM. Through the AutoCal, Justin with BB Performance will need to tweek it in his tune file to your liking. But a custom tune like Blackbear is definitely better than any handheld off the shelf tuner.

 

Diablo Predator will shut off AFM also.

Hi Jen,

I received my AutoCal....I think I was one of the ones that went out without the software update. Justin sent me a file to switch back to the old config...but could not get it to work. Never the less maybe I had the new software update as I went to updates on the EFILive website and downloaded the most recent config.

 

As someone asked, how do I know if my AutoCal has the correct software?

 

Anyway after waiting a LONG TIME!!!!!! (I believe it was EFILive's fault) I received my AutoCal. Logged data and emailed the logged file to Justin and BB just now.

 

I hope my tune makes me happy. Since I paid for my AutoCal and tune back the middle of January (Jan. 13) and still have not got a tune in my truck.

 

Waiting Patiently!

how can we tell if we need the update or not?

 

 

I believe that Justin has taken care of all the folks affected by this update. Otherwise, should be status quo for you folks who have had your AutoCals. Just check for updates on the EFILive site every so often.

 

Hey Jenna, so you have any more Autocals in stock, or are they all spoken for?

 

 

I do believe we have a few left in this batch, but another order has already been made.

I looked into your email (and see your purchase date of Jan 30th). You must have been using the incorrect program to try to "downgrade" the program. The EFILive Explorer program has the F12: Firmware tab to it. Without that "downgrade", tune files will be the problem, not the log file

 

In your email, you sent over your log file, but the tune files are also needed, Read 1 E38 and Read 2 T43.

 

Yes, the AutoCal backlog was out of our control, we could only keep our customer's updated on the situation unfortunately.

      Thanks!  I figured as such; GM and other manufacturers have used standard parts and harnesses across trim levels and such for decades.  I pulled the blank accessory cover off of my commuter van (a 2016 or so Chevy 15-passenger) years ago and found the plug for a USB outlet.  It wasn't connected to anything, though (I tried swapping in an outlet from another van).  I was a GM Tech years ago (late-90s) and was pretty familiar with my 2006.  I might be wrong, but I view newer vehicles (pretty much anything made in the past 20 years) as being a lot more plug and play.  Meaning, more unused wires and plugs unless you have the Mack Daddy of vehicles.

      not all plugs will be used.  gm uses more generic harnesses that support most/all options, and if your truck doesn't have a specfiic option, the plug won't be used (commonly will have a dummy insert in the plug , or it'll be taped up, but some may just be left as is).  But it's sldo possible some p.o. has installed the wrong/cheaper parts that aren't correct for your vehicle...

      First off, I'm not trying to just get easy advice/fixes for the issues I've noticed so far.  I'll be combing through the site via searches and such, and if past experiences are any indication, should find what I need.  For the sake of conversation, though, I figured I'd post the handful of things I've noticed in the 12 hours since buying my 2010 SLE CCSB.     Indicator lights: Airbag and TPMS.  The tire pressures aren't reading for any of the wheels, so I'm pretty certain the sensors were either removed, are damaged, or are otherwise inoperable.  I used to mount and balance tires 25 years ago but am pretty much ignorant when it comes to TPMS.  My 2006 didn't have the sensors and this might be the fourth vehicle I've owned that does.     Radio: Rear speakers aren't working.  I removed the driver's side rear door panel and checked the speaker and wiring.  I also removed the sill and b-pillar covers to check the wiring.  A few minutes of Google Fu showed that this is potentially a head unit issue.    Switches: Power mirrors don't turn left/right.  I ordered replacement driver's door switches that should arrive tomorrow.  The windows and locks work but it was only about $20 for all of them.  The driver's side rear window switch lets the window down but won't put it back up.  I think the passenger rear doesn't work at all.  In the coming days/weeks, I'll break out my multimeter to check all of that.   Unknown wiring harness: There's a box attached to the front driver's side of the engine compartment, right where the second battery shelf is located.  There are three plugs, one of which looks like it fits a standard headlight-style bulb (9007 or similar).  It doesn't look like it's plugged into anything.  I'll do some digging and if I don't see anything elsewhere on the site, post some pictures here.   Unknown plugs on brake booster: There are at least two female plugs on the brake booster that aren't being used.  I think it might be a replacement/aftermarket, so maybe those are used for a different application, as there don't seem to be any unplugged harnesses and no indicator lights are on.   Little squeaks when turning: Sounds almost like a bushing around the bed of the truck.  I'll have to pay close attention as I get more familiar with the truck.   Clunk on acceleration: possibly the infamous drivetrain clunk.  My 2006 had it and I'm just not familiar enough with this truck yet to fully grasp what it is.   Anyway, my apologies for the vague and all over the place post.  This truck is new to me, and it's been four years since I drove my 2006.  With 200k miles, I know I'll need to learn this truck quickly to avoid having any major issues, despite being confident it's got much more life to it.  My 2006 had nearly 320k on it when I parked it (nearly 300k of which I put on the truck), and it was still drivable then, though I suspected the head gasket might have blown.  I'd hoped to have that truck back by now, but it's gone forever, as I detailed in my reintroduction thread.
