TIPS/Reminders when FLASHING:
- Perform the FLASH in a location where you are safe in the event your truck won't start. (I.E. Not in the middle of a field)
- Always make sure the KEY is in the RUN position while flashing.
- Make sure you don't have weak batteries while flashing.
- Do not interupt the FLASH.
- You must flash your #7 STOCK file before it will accept a CAL file.
