Can I check to see if the procal tune is still in the ecu ?

[ARC77]

So last night my 26 Raptor had an update on its own. And noticed some app difference. I installed the FP tune last month and I was wondering how would I know if the update reset the tune ? Or would it not ? Either way would I be able to see it in the FP monitor ? If I’m saying to correctly?

This is why you invest in a butt-dyno.

As of yet, I have not heard of an over-the-air update from ford resetting a tune of any type (FP or any other).

It has been so long since I flashed my tune I don't recall of a setting/screen in the ProCal that indicates tune Ver. # or equivalent, but I think it likely if you plug in your ProCal to Bronco it would give some indication as to the state of the flash on the Bronco. I do recall that software on laptop (again, forget the exact name) does indicate what tune ver. # you downloaded, so maybe get that first

PCM OTA updates won’t install if you have the FP tune

I had a dealership install my PC tune on my 24 Braptor, so not sure that I can verify/reinstall it on my own. I’ve wondered about whether or not it’s still active or if any of the various updates altered it.

I'm on my second one and I was innocently checking out newer models when my current one threatened to kill me in my sleep.

If you have the ProCal dongle, you can always just try to re-install the tune. Just plug it in and follow the prompts. (I recommend having the battery on a tender, the process doesn't take long - maybe 5 minutes, but there is a lot of key on / key off, and you would hate to have a battery go limp in the middle of changing your PCM)

I used to say "does your ASS remember the previous setting" - but that got changed.

Now, the only good tell is your top turbo pressure. I don't know what it would be with/without ProCal on the v6's... on the i4 your turbo pressure will top out around 18 psi without the ProCal tune. With the tune it will top out around 21 psi.

i thought of just doing this. Thank you

I think there's an over-the-air update for that.

I'm concerned that any update could [concrete] brick my hardware.

That could certainly plug you up for a while.

I would also be concerned about how it affects your warranty.
