It's not too bad shaking, its just like it gets ready to shift, and feels like it does it too slow, Idk. But I tried with a shift firm of 5, then 9, now 18. But now it doesn't do it as bad. I'll try n see if I can get a video or something

It just feels like the downshifting has issues. Any ideas?
Now I've set the program to the default towing "tune" and only changed my tire size, and it's till doing it. Yesterday I was at a complete stop waiting to pull into a parking spot, I gave it gas for momentum, let off, cranked the wheel to pull into the spot and it stalled. What settings should i change?

What is your idle RPM? Maybe it's to low and needs to be turned up a tad. Did it do this when the truck was stock? I say return it to stock and update your programmer with the software provided.

I'll check what it is, but whatever it is, it's the default setting for the towing program. The truck did not do this when it was stock and I've returned to stock and updated with the towing tune.

I have a 5.4 so you'll need to change your rpms to reflect the 4.6's Red Line

Okay here is my Economy Setting:

Level 2 87 Octane

WOT Shift
1-2 5200 RPM
2-3 5200 RPM
3-4 5000 RPM

Rev Limiter:
5350 RPM

Conv. Lock Points:
3rd Gear Lock -4
4th Gear Lock -6

WOT Fuel:
1.4

Shift Firmness:
1-2 16
2-3 16
3-4 16

Timing:
+0.5

Speed Limiter:
92 mph

Tire Size:
2645mm

Gear Ratio:
3.73:1

I have a 33" tire as well.



Here is my Performance Setting

Level 3 93 Octane ONLY

WOT Shift
1-2 5300 RPM
2-3 5300 RPM
3-4 5000 RPM

Rev Limiter:
5450 RPM

Conv. Lock Points:
3rd Gear Lock -4
4th Gear Lock -6

WOT Fuel:
1.8

Shift Firmness:
1-2 18
2-3 18
3-4 18

Timing:

i just bought my programmer today

do i need to make a custom tune every time i switch modes? tire size shifting ect. or does it save it?




for example if i just set up my extreme mode but i move to towing mode then back to extreme do i need to set it up all over again?


im running 37's any good settings?

I am having the same issue, 05/5.4/103k all stock except Edge Programmer. It does not stall with stock program, but does occasionally with Tow Mode. It definitely idles lower with the program than stock? Is one of the settings idle speed and I can't find it? My idle speed is like 500 and sometimes lower, that is definitely too low. Just did the plug change and it is still happening :-(

EDIT: I did update the programmer the day I got it (a couple weeks ago) so I don't think it is a version issue.

im not really sure if i saw it in here but what is the point of changing the already set levels. could anyone explain what changing each thing does or is supposed to do, such as WOT, firmness or other levels and why it would is worth changing to certain levels

The levels have a preset of each parameter but you can adjust these to suit your fuel quality and to adjust for bolt on's like CAI and exhaust.

WOT is Wide Open Throttle and you can change how much fuel it dumps in at this time and what RPM it shifts at. Shift firmness adjust how hard and fast the transmission shifts.

Is it worth customizing it from the preset levels or for the average driver are the preset levels sufficient enough

I dont have any experience with my programmer i also have the edge evolution but when i bough my truck it already had it on. Everything seems to be working fine but could i take it in to someplace and have them check it out and make sure Im using my full potential? I have never messed with the thing btw
