tomorrow go down to autozone or whatever you got near you and have them test the battery.

well I just put a brand new battery in and pulled the OBDII Port fuse and followed the directions very carefully and the Edge immediately said "unable to connect to PCM" followed by error code 150 call tech support. Im stumped, It initially worked and i was able to load the level 1 tune but wouldnt start. now the programmer wont even conect to my PCM and still just cranks with no turning over whether edge is plugged in or not

I don't want to sound like you don't know anythign, sorry if this offends you but are you plugging it in the the actual port? If so then take it to a parts store that does free diagnostic testing and have them hook up to it. If it works then its your programmer, if it doesn't its your port

no offense taken, but yes i am plugging it in to my actual port. When I first installed it the edge fired right up and i was able to get in and run my truck fine, when I loaded tune 1 was when it would not start and the error code came up. I believe the port is working properly as it powers up my edge but it just wont connect to PCM. I just heard back from tech and they are looking at the programmer through the fusion software. hopefully this helps because I have no vehicle at the moment

Pulling the fuse did nothing?

That's odd.. cause I get the same message or Error 150 code sometimes, and if I try to start, it starts or I pull the fuse and put it back in and the Edge/Gryphon screen comes on and I follow the instructions...

I had it do Error 150 code twice and had Bill at PHP help me... but now anytime it happens I pull my fuse and it does the trick.

For those of you that have this installed, please let me know what kind of results you are getting with regards to increased fuel milage. I am looking at getting one, if for no other reason I have heard nice gains in fuel milage.
