different system that does not use that at all. whatever you got is wrong as this box is for manual air systems

you need a shop with a scan tool that can monitor the actions of the programmer to determine the failure.

sorry for the confusion. it is not a common option for this model

yes, i have but without a scan tool, everything is a guess. auto systems are computer controlled and you need to see values that are available in a scan tool.
