that sucks. did you try the sctflash/forum? if there is one thing I learnt with SCT is back up the stock file on the computer. they seem to have a lot of problems like this and thats why I am hoping you can find something on there site to help you out

Can you hear your glow plus doing their job when you turn the key forward?

I haven't even listened for them during stock starts, but it should sound like a clicking, right??

[zgerm01]

Any way to manually power the glow plugs if they aren't working??

You should be hearing that shh shh shh shh sound when you turn the key forward, if you arent then that is where the problem lies.. As for your other question I am not sure..

I got you. Well thats a good question, and my guess is they aren't working, or aren't working correctly at least. I'm really thinking that my only hope is to wait for the block heater to do its job.

My XCal2 being locked wouldn't have anything to do with this right?? Since I can't return my truck back to stock, thats my real problem, which I'm assuming only the dealer at this point can help me with. My SCT dealer I think was figuring this out as he went, and I think he may have accidently deleted my stock file. Does anyone know how to retrieve your stock file off the tuner??

Any ideas on what to do at the airport while waiting for my block heater to work??

You might have to call SCT and request a stock file
