im so pissed off right now its not even funny... dealer called... said they could manually do something with the FCA and the truck would run... said i needed a FCA... well just so happened i had a old one in the toolbox of the truck... but i couldnt remember if it was good or not because i THOUGHT it was the new one i got a week before my CP3 went out... well it wasnt... it was the bad one (mechanically bad) that was in my CP3 before i got the new one... the new one filled with metal when the CP3 went out... well anyway he swapped it in and the truck started... so they called me and said it was running and fixed... of course at the time i was like ok the FCA must be good and nothing else came to mind... i paid my $300 for the ECM install and re-flashing and troubleshooting got in the truck... started up and sounded like ... tried to go across the parking lot and had no power... well there was no check engine light... so at this point im cool with it... no big deal... FCA must have been the bad one... just alittle pissed because i drove to the other side of town to get it and there no way they even test drove it... and no way they thought the engine was suppose to sound like crap... so i went back in and told him it wasnt right its not street worthy and i doubt i can even make it out the parking lot! he said "let me get this straight ,you said to get it running, and theres no guarentee on any used parts" (they knew i was going to ATL this weekend to pull a truck back on a trailer, there no way this could have happened)... and mind you this is in a smart tone... boy i went off... i was going in there to leave them the key so they could keep working on it... i knew it was going to cost more... but he started talking about whats done is done and yatta yatta... i went way off because he came at me this way... i said i dont have a problem with paying more for more work... theres progress... but i said you call and tell me that it fixed it and its ready... and i cant even drive it off the Fin lot!!! basically cause he attacked me like this i went off... told them i should have came and got my truck when they called and said i needed a lift pump (my truck doesnt even have a lift pump, in tank conversion, posted on the dang radiator support AND got a gauge on it and it wouldnt even start on starting fluid)... i said i should got my junk right then but i gave you another chance and yet got a attitude and a bill... took my keys back up and said ill drive this junk to somebody else then.... they had my truck what? since monday i think and this is as far as they got!!
well not it does start... runs rough probly due to the FCA... im going to cummins south to pick one up moday... BUT whats weird is not only do i have these issues but my parking brake light is on, my ABS light is on, AND if i unplug my FCA while the trucks running... the check engine light doesnt come on... it should be on anyways cause this is what happened when this FCA went out months ago!!! did they not load the dang ECM right? can i stick my original ECM back in since it didnt fix the problem or did something change to it that wont allow this? i would think it would still be set to my truck...
IM SO TIRED OF THIS... $600 later and STILL NO IDEA WHATS GOING ON!!!
