Did you take the edge off? If it blew a PCM I would hope you didnt put it back on... FYI, no 02 or newer truck will show RPMs on the tach while cranking.

Its simply not possable for the Edge unit to "fry" your IDM... PCM, MAYBE... thats a big maybe.

Get a scanner on it and see what the ICP pressures are doing.

Did u call edge I had the same problem with my edge Evo when I first got my truck then they walked me through how to fix it. and most of us here use dp tuners and ts chips so idk if anyone will be able to help u out as much as edge could.
But after edge walks u through how to fix it if ur still doesn't work then I would say more then the tuner.

i can personally say that edge smoked the PCM in my 96. i changed tunes and right towards the end of the flash process, it did some weird triangle,to square, to trapaziod pattern on the screen. i thought it was ok ish so i fired it up and it loped 3 times and quit. PCM was cooked. but that was with a basic edge evolution.

I ran the edge evo for a few years and never had a problem.

Ya has an attitude tho which is in the fly compared to the Evo which isn't.
But OP any luck with the truck yet?

Ive heard and seen many cases of EDGE tuners smoking PCM but 75% of the time they were in 6.0s

I've worked on a couple that did all sorts of "fun" things. Just gotta love an edge... Check your harness over thoroughly! When the Edge connectors jump in they have a tendency of causing bad connections with the injector connectors coming from the harness and the common ground line (middle wire) usually is the one that cooks in the process. Fun starts when that wire melts into others in the middle of the harness bundle. Check your IDM fuse/relay. They could have gone instead, also could have back fed and fried the PCM as said above. When 220V DC is running loose, anything can happen. Juiced w/attitude or the like doesn't flash the PCM so they cant lock you up like the programmer style ones can so it wont be that simple of a fix.
