Angry PP3 Problem!!! HELP!!!
I was loading my 99 SS with a program and my battery went dead without me knowing. I left the car and came back and it was dead. So I charged the battery and put the PP3 back on and it said program was interrupted and it will restart where it left off. I did as the PP3 said and turned the key when prompted and nothing happens and now I can hear the fuel relay buzzing and the car won't start. WTF?

I can fix the pcm for you if you send it my way. Just cover shipping. The pcm is probably fried. The pp3 isnt to blame on your mishap. The dead battery is. When programming always make sure your lights and other things are turned off.

Just so everyone knows, I spoke with Hypertech and they said that I couldn't even send it back to them to fix the programmer and to "THROW IT AWAY" and that I should buy another piece of **** from them for twice the money so I told the guy that he sold **** and that I would spread the word about what he sells. Needless to say, I should of researched the PP3 more before I bought it. Oh well, LIVE and LEARN!

Have Jesse set you up with a tune while it is there as well, it will be TONS better than the PP3 tune anyway.

Items sent, I hope this works out for me. UPS said it will be there in 3-4 days. It usually goes the other way for me.
