What if I Don’t Return to Stock?
Here are some common examples:
• If you take your vehicle in for service, they will “flash” the engine computer. Even if you ask them not to, any dealer or shop will do this
automatically – it is standard procedure for any vehicle they see and they really can’t help themselves from following this ingrained
habit. What they are doing is actually writing an updated file over any information that is currently saved in your engine computer. This
includes the tune from your GT T+, so basically the tune is no longer installed and you will not be able to use the power level settings
or any other options – but the GT T+ doesn’t know that, it still thinks that the tune is saved to your engine computer. Unless you go
through the uninstall process with your GT T+, it will still show as installed and will not allow you reload the tune on your vehicle or on
any other vehicle. The only way to resolve this problem is to contact technical support and have the GT T+ reset – there is a mandatory
fee for this service. See page 42 for more information about the reset and fee.
• If you sell or trade-in your vehicle you will not be able to install your GT T+ on another one without calling technical support to have the
GT T+ reset. See page 42 for more information about the required fee for the reset service.
• If you sell the GT T+ to another person without uninstalling the tune from your vehicle first, they will not be able to use it. You will prob-
ably have negative consequences like an upset buyer, having to refund the purchase price or cover the cost of a reset, a negative review,
and bad karma.
By now, you may have noticed a pattern: if you do not return your vehicle to stock and something happens to your engine computer, you
will need to call and pay the fee in order to have the GT T+ reset. Page 42 has more information about the reset process and the
required fee.
How Do I Know if the GT T+ is (Still) Installed?
There are two ways to check if the tune is currently installed:
Main Screen
1. Look at the lower right corner of the main display screen.
2. If there is a box that reads “Power level setting not available until download is installed” the tune is not installed.
• If there is anything else in this part of the main screen, the tune is probably installed. You can double check by using the method described below.
Show Settings Screen
1. Go to the Main Menu.
2. Scroll down.
3. Choose Show Settings.
4. Check to see what the GT T+ shows next to “Download”.
5. If it shows:
• Installed – the tune is still loaded on the engine computer.
• Not Installed – the tune has been uninstalled and the vehicle is returned to stock.
• Recovery – there is a problem and you should contact technical support. See page 43 for more information.
