I think we got a little off topic here. Originally, the topic's main issue was to inform users of the Livewire or new SCT Xcal3 to return the truck back to it's original tune status before any software or firmware was updated with the Liveupdater program. If you don't return the truck to your stock tune, the update process moves some parameters in the stock tune software. When you go to use the device again, it no longer will recognize your truck and will not reflash the truck with any more tunes. Your stock tune will also be stuck in the device. You will then have to contact SCT and have them connect to your PC with the device hooked up, pull your serial # and strategy and wipe your SCT clean of all tunes. Then they reinstall your stock tune and you have to re-aquire your tunes from your SCT dealer. This is what happened to a few of us. Vivian was nice enough to recognize this problem and posted it to save people a lot of time and frustration by warning us to return the truck back to stock before any of the items she noted are performed. In addition to returning it to stock to keep these things from happening, it may also have other benefits that you guys have mentioned.
