SCT problems loading tune.

SCT problems loading tune.
I had my car to the ford dealership the other day for a replacement hood ( the old one was rusting ). During the visit I had the Air Bag TSB done. I purchaced a new filter and was getting ready to install it and decided to run through my tunes before I replaced the filter. I went to load the stock tune and the car went limp and would not start. I tried to load another tune and the programer said unable to load tune. Did ford screw me and reset/reflash my computer? I was able to get the car started..... dont know how I did it, but it seems to still have the 93 tune in it cause it still shifts hard( auto ). Please help....it's been awhile since I have been on here, good to be back!!!!

I think if they changed the strategy they would have reflashed the whole PCM with a stock tune, but I'm not sure. They could have just updated your strategy I suppose. If you put the stock tune back on and it went limp, how is it running on the 93 tune if the programmer was unable to program?

I just got an email from Dave at brenspeed and was informed that if the SCT tuner is not used for a long period of time the tuner may take a few tries to become friendly with the PCM again. I will try and reload the tunes this coming Monday when I have free time and just incase I cant get the car started. I will keep you all informed and TY for the replies.
