Nope. The T87 (2016) is not locked, the T87A (2017-2019) is tunable after unlocking, and the T93 (2020+) has not been cracked yet and quite possibly never will be.

This^^^. Nice explanation, Arpad.

Still don't get why they cannot be read and only written to.

Not sure if you overlooked my previous post.

Did you try "Writing Entire" when you flashed the ECM? You have to manually select this in the window listing all the controllers after you selected write. If you don't then HPtuners just performs a partial write with the changes you made. I wouldn't be surprised if flashing the entire tune file fixes your issue.

Yeah, tried twice. I am at dealer now waiting for them to do the install and reflash so I can load my tune. When I was at dealer weds they only did a dealer flash and not install the new ecm. It worked til I got home and tried to start again and got code u0100.. Lost communication with ecm.

bummer.

I do believe I know what started all the issues. I am using the newer hp tuners module and it has a port on side for wideband. Well when u plug the wideband into that port it is tight against the door. So, I was worried it would get damaged so I bought a 12" obd cable extension so I can just have the hp module under the dash and not worry about the wideband connector getting damaged. Well, when car failed to write the other day It occurred to me later in the day to try writing the tune without that extension cable and it worked. No idea why hp tuners put the port on drivers side so it is up against the door when plenty of room on opposite side.

I may see if any better luck with the 5ft obd extension cable hp tuners sells. I would have thought less issues with 1ft extension vs 5ft, but if they sell it I guess it works ok. Ideal the wideband cable would have a 90 angle on it so it doesn't go into the door where it could get crushed

I use a AEM 30-0334 with OBD pass through. You don't need to use the MPVI wideband input and the cost savings between HPt standard and pro easily buys the gauge. Doesn't help you at this point but figured I would mention for anybody else reading.

I have the Aeroforce interceptor setup with their wideband. I thought there's had pass through as well, but didn't seem to work unless not configured properly.

This is definitely the way to go IMO. This setup made for very easy WB data logging right through HP Tuners.
