Has this happened to you? Trans problem
 
I just updated my edge Evolution two night ago. Then the next day I replaced to factory battery on the driver side. And all of a sudden my trans started to act funny. Like from a dead stop it would act like it was out of gear or in a higher gear. And it is totally random. doesnt always happen. Fird dealer has it now. But the ECU is but posting any error codes. The dealer had to call a ford hotline. I beleave they are resetting my ECU. So has this happened to you. Oh I have only own this truck for maybe 5 weeks.
Afterthought
Maybe I should get ahold of edge. I hear bully is the way to go. So maybe I should get rid of the edge?

Wow no thats never happened to me lol. Get rid of that Edge and DO NOT GET BULLY DOG!!! THATS NOT THE WAY TO GO!The greatest thing for the 6.0L is the SCT! Get the SCT X3 from Innovative Diesel and get custom tunes! You will be amazed at the amount of power you will get from the custom tunes. Call up Innovative Diesel and talk to them about the SCT X3. :U:

:argh:Sct cool will lookin to it. I called edge and got a couple of ideas to try. Dealer wanted 1500. for a new pcm, Ouch. Right now the truck is set back to stock settings and they are going to drive it around the block and see whats happens. So waiting on a phone call. Will keep you posted.

Well i got mine from a local repair shop......just look up your repair shops and give them a call.

Thanks for the heads up on the used PCM. I found one for $400. But the torque converter blew metal all thru my trans. SO I went used with that to. Found one for 2,100. Should have truck back by tuesday. Any ideas how i blew my pcu by jumping truck. Or adding new battery? I had that edge but the only mod i used was eco. But When I jumped it something went hair wire. SO totally scared off after market chips right now.
Hope everyone had a great easter.

Wow i've never heard of a torque converter blowing up by jumping it....i bet some ford guru will be on here reading this thread soon. Glad i could help you out with the PCM. Well be scared of every aftermarket chip except SCT! SCT isnt a chip its a programmer and you will fall in love with it's custom tunes. :U: Happy Easter

NO the pcm got damged by jump or when i replaced battery. Then the trans mission did not have a proper mode it was set in. Ford said it was actting like it was in 5th gear. OK If I got a SCT How would I chance truck back to stock. Does it keep the stock codes and the custom tunes. In it memory? How and the price is right on the sct. I went and looked at them. Do you ran the touch screen pad to?
