I resently bought a edge juice with attitude module for my 05 chevy duramax I was driving and the truck got up to temp. I reached over and turned the chip on I accelerated and I had the back down for the boost set to low so it backed down the cheack engine light came on and the transmision locked in fourth gear I pulled over and tried to put it in reverse and it just blinked and would not move so I shut it off and started it back up the trans. Seemed fine the check engine light was still on so I removed the chip and it is still on what could it be thanks david

Need to have it scanned for codes
codes will pin point what is happening or what happened

I would also suspect the transfer decoder
need codes scan the system
