03 cobra I have a sct4 tuner on 91 octane tune and wanted to put it back to stock for smog check. When i plug it in, it says cant read file need update? I bought it new about 2 yrs ago. I tried to go update with the handheld but it wont connect to wifi? Any tuners here i can send my handheld to for updating? Thanks

you dont need an update to return to stock in fact you shouldnt be updating the xcal unless it is returned to stock already

sounds like your stock tune is corrupted on the xcal

best bet is to remove the ecu and the send it along with the xcal to me and I can fix it.

How do i get ahold of you to send my computet/xcal to fix? I tried sct and they will not even talk to you about fixing if you live in Cali. I tried for 4 months to contact them and when i did it was a joke

Why did Cali need to come up in the convo especially if you are trying to go back to stock? I'm sure someone can send you a stock 03/04 cobra tune to load.

California was mentioned because when i finally got ahold of sct they refused to even talk with me when i said i lived in California. It was no problem when i bought the tuner from LMR a couple of years ago but now things have changed.

Yeah I would tell them you recently moved to Texas and need help updating your device. Have you tried connecting it to a laptop and downloading the device updater from their website?

The problem is the hanheld wont download an update, therefore i cant even use it to return the tune to stock. I just wanted to have it fixed and unless it is being mailed to a state other than CA sct wont do it. I don't blame them its not their fault. I should have just sent it to decipha and been done. That's what I'm going to do now. It would still cost a few hundered to have ford reflash it to stock but then i still have a 400$ useless tuner i bought new

Yeah everything I have seen on multiple forums is that Decipha is highly praised, so I'm sure it will work out in the end.

I wasn't sure if it was an issue where it wouldn't update through WIFI but may be fixable through device updater if connected via USB.
