SCT Chip/No cold start
Alright gents, i'll try to sum this up as short and sweet as possible. For now i'll just give my problem because I have a plane to catch in 15 minutes. My truck is in Atlanta which i'm going to get back to tomorrow afternoon, i'm currently leaving Hawaii. It is currently programmed with an SCT xcal2 and the program it is currently on won't let my truck cold-start without it being plugged in. I figured before I dropped my truck off in Atlanta airport, i'd just put it back to stock so I wouldn't have a problem with the cold-start. Long story short, the tuner said the stock file was locked. Any suggestions on how to start my truck, since it will be cold???? Thanks in advance fella's.

I'm at my next layover, and I forgot to mention that I have my laptop (w/ livelink) and my tuner is in my truck. If need be I can aquire a cable and reconfigure my tuner to help me get my truck to stock, if it can be done. If I can't figure out how to fix my tuner, than my only other option I can think of is to plug my truck in for a few hours...that would be a pain though because i'm parked about 300-400 feet from the nearest power outlet.

Fella's, please help if at all possible. I'm currently sitting in Atlanta airport and I had to take a taxi to buy 2 extension chords to plug my truck in. I also have my laptop, SCT XCAL2, and software with me, but I'm not sure how to reprogram my tuner to allow my truck to start in the cold. Additionally, I just tried to return my truck to stock again and it give me a message along the line of "program failed"??? Please help out if you have any suggestions, I have a 5 hour ride ahead of me with my wife and 3 year old daughter sitting with me at the airport. I'd appreciate any advice with a way to get this thing programmed right, or a faster way to get a cold-start!!!!!
