OPERATION OF THE DERRINGER MODULE

Setting Desired Power Level:

Your Derringer tuner module has three settings. These are Sport, Plus, and  

Stock (off). You can set the desired power level while the engine is running, 

under power or off. It is recommended that you do not switch modes under 

high throttle applications. The level can be changed by either the switch, or  

the iDash 1.8" gauge by pressing the up or down keys on the left side. 

SPORT MODE (switch up)

This is the most aggressive calibration. It is tuned to give you maximum power 

and turbo response for short to medium bursts. Full power will be available for 

10-15 seconds at a time depending on the application.

PLUS MODE (switch down)

The plus calibration is designed for use in everyday driving. This power level adds 

a noticeable punch under high load acceleration by improving turbo response 

and power. Power in this mode can be sustained for a prolonged duration.

STOCK MODE (switch middle)

Stock mode turns OFF your Derringer tuner. Throttle response and power return 

to stock levels.

Your Derringer Tuner has a built-in, self-diagnostic 

system. The status of the diagnostic system is 

communicated via the LED on the module. When 

the Derringer module is functioning properly the LED 

will flash green. When the LED is not illuminated, the 

Derringer module is not powered on. If the ignition is on 

and the LED is not illuminated, check the connections at 

the vehicle sensors and ensure they are fully engaged. 

When faults are detected, the Derringer module will 

flash a diagnostic code. These diagnostic codes are 

comprised of 2 digits. Each digit is expressed by the 

flashing red LED. A code can be determined by counting 

the number of red flashes displayed before the LED 

flashes green. This is the first digit. The number of 

red flashes after the LED flashes green is the second 

digit. After the diagnostic code is displayed, additional 

codes will be displayed in sequence. Once all codes are 

displayed the system we begin sending the codes again.  

The display of the codes is separated by a longer period 

of the LED not being illuminated. Once you have written 

down all diagnostic codes being displayed, consult the 

table on the following page for a description of the code 

along with the action to be taken.
