Hi I just got the edge evolution power programmer for my 02 f150 with the 5.4l engine for christmas. I installed it today and did the first level load and all went well saying the load succesful. when I went to start my truck it just kept cranking and wouldnt fire and the error code 150 "PCM not responding popped up". Ive tried unplugging the negative terminal and nothing seems to do anything. any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

 

Have you checked your battery? While I was installing my HID's my programmer said the same code, after the battery was hooked back up it was good.

 

i don't know if its a coincidence or not but i also got a Edge evo for X mas and just installed and had the same thing!!! But im 90% sure its my battery because its been acting up alot on me lately and doesn't have any reserve left.

 

You either misread something or batteries voltage is low.....

I'd try pulling your OBDII port fuse and re-installing it. It should read your HEX code and follow the directions....

 

Hey man. Had the same problem with a superchips programmer. Had to pay 150 n get the computer reprogrammed. Not a fun experience

 

My battery is definitely weak. I had to jump it to get it to turn over but it just cranks and doesnt fire. A weak battery can cause that error code and make it so the truck wont start?

 

Well the programmer takes power even when its not turned on. Thats how it stores your settings. If the battery is so low that the PCM doesnt get an input then yes it will cause that code.

 

wouldnt this be overcome by jumping it though?

 

no cause its not storing the power in the battery, its just giving it right now.

 

thanks for all the help on, i will try a new battery, pull the OBD fuse and see where that puts me as tech support is on vaca till jan 3rd
