I thought I'd seen them before but I can't find them now so I might have been wrong. Sorry about that. My biggest beef with the Pacesetters is that the paint burnt off in 50 miles and now they look terrible. If they last I'll be ok with them. I should have done some research, because everyone online says to strip the Pacesetters down and repaint them with a 1600 degree paint. The fit on them was perfect.

Check to see if your fuse is blown the cigarette lighter, it powers the OBD circuit too. Once you fix your tuner, check your air pressure in your tires. Best gas mileage. Run a bottle of Techron or equiv. thru a tank of gas.

Do you happen to know what number it is? And when I do the programming you have to remove the fuel pump fuse also correct?

#3 in fuse box behind kick panel 20 amp, also check #1 in box under hood also 20 amp. Fuel pump runs for 5/10 seconds after key turned to run without start and then shuts off. If it doesn't shut off but runs all the time that is another problem. You should hear the sound of the pump if it is quiet.

I can't say for sure with Superchips, but with my SCT I don't pull any fuses to program it. I don't know why you'd have to. The owners manual will tell you the number on the cigarette lighter fuse, I don't know it off hand, but I know it's under the dash.
