Who Here has had their Ed W PCM flashed by the Dealer back to Stock?
Hey Guys, I need LS1 Edit and my Ed W tuned computer is "locked" by them. I know u can have the PCM flashed back, but I have heard of SOME people having issues setting it back. The dealer couldn't do it. Maybe he was retarded, <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" /> maybe it couldn't be done. Just looking for some help. If u have had this done successfully or not, let me know. Any and all input would help. Thanks Bear

If it is possible for it to be reflashed, Carputing should be able to do it. They charged me $50.00 + shipping to reflash a pcm for me. My laptop stopped working and had messed it up.
They also can sell you one for your car. I believe it runs around $200.00 + shipping.
Send them an email and they can help you out.

we do it all the time
I would try a different dealer
in talking with Ed he told me he does not lock it its just that he makes his program so you can read it

Bear, here's a (happy ending) story from a local guy with the same issue:

I need to find out who the dealer was since I'm needing to get one reflashed myself.

I had it reflashed by Ed back to a stock tune. The dealer wanted like ~$100 to reflash mine to stock. Drove it ~10 miles to the dyno...that was fun. Had to feather it a little at stop lights, but it wasn't too bad. Mods at the time were SII H/C and converter.
I would try to use a dealer if at all possible...reduces the downtime and what not.
