I left my Scorcher tuner in my vehicle and went to my dealer for service, now my
programmer will not work.
Solution: The dealership likely updated your vehicle’s calibrations – sometimes to
improve drivability, emissions or safety features and saved over the Scorcher tuning.
The programmer does not recognize the new fi les in your vehicle. Contact aFe Power
Tech Support at 951.493.7155 to correct the situation.
My programmer works fi ne on my vehicle, but after I returned my vehicle to stock
and tried it on another vehicle I own, the screen showed E-6D “Needs Update – why?
Solution: Every aFe Power programmer is freshly loaded at our factory with the
latest databases meant to provide extremely broad vehicle coverage. Your vehicle’s
calibrations (tuning fi les) were inside our database, but your other vehicle had
calibrations aFe Power has not seen before. You can run Scorcher Easy Update on your
programmer. If the fi les are ready, you get them immediately. If not, you will receive an
e-mail as soon as they are available.
My programmer shows a ‘vehicle calibration not on fi le’ status.
Solution: Every aFe Power programmer is loaded with the latest databases meant
to provide extremely broad vehicle coverage. ‘Vehicle calibration not on fi le’ status
occurs when a programmer does not have the necessary calibration fi les to program
a vehicle. Update your programmer with Scorcher Easy Update software. If your
calibration is available it will be downloaded to your programmer for immediate use. If
your calibration is not available, your calibration will be uploaded to aFe Power’s R&D
for tuning. You will receive an e-mail as soon as your calibration is available. Calibrations
are usually available in 1 – 2 business days.
