H&S stolen

Need some advice,
I bought a truck that had a h&s mini maxx installed but for the delete purpose only. And a 4 straight pipe.
The h&s was stolen a few weeks ago and is still deleted. I have acquired a new mini maxx but the old tune is still running.
My dealer said he could flash it back to stock but then it wouldn't run since the programmer is off.
Do I have him flash it then go straight to the new tuner before starting it?
Thanks

I have always wondered this myself! You might have to contact H&S to see what they say.

Just load the new Mini Maxx straight onto the truck. It will work just fine.

Yes, but you need to have the stock tune from the truck in the tuner.

best to reflash, then hook up tuner.

If not you will never be able to unlock it again.

Re: H&S stolen

Your saying if I try to put my new one on now then it'll be locked too?
Is there any way to send it off to h&s and have them unlock even though they arnt producing these anymore?

No you don't. This is an H&S, not an SCT. The factory tunes are already in the H&S when you pull it out of the box.

been there, done that

If you want to waste your time/money having the truck reflashed, go for it, but the H&S will load up just fine. It doesn't read/store the factory tune. It already has it stored in it.

i went throught he same problem, my truck got broken into during goose season when i was out in a field....they stole my mini maxx the truck was stuck on the same tune with dpf delete...i contacted h&s they dont sell separate monitors, so i bought a new one....ALL STOCK TUNES ARE ALREADY IN THEIR MONITORS, buy your new tuner and download it too your truck, it will work just fine, and you can still put it back too stock if you have too....DONT GO TOO FORD AND GET THEM TOO FLASH IT STOCK FIRST save your money man!!!!!
