If it stopped working your truck shouldn't run correctly. How do you know it stops working?

Honestly you best solution would be to see if banks will help you out. More often than not they are here to promote a product but never around when you have a problem. You have been on here more than a day so ill avoid saying what I think of banks tuning.

Banks has a million paramaters on it that limits the tuning from working if their not all in sync. Is it only doing it when the truck is cold or in the middle of a long haul with a heavy load? Also, if the banks does limit it, it will make you run stock, which will feel completely powerless when your used to an extra ### horsepower.

I second that.

Had the same issue on my '04. Finally, Banks had me check a diag light on the Banks module when it was acting up & they said the unit was bad and needed replaced with the newer version (not under warraty)!!! The Banks sys I had was about 4 yrs old. You might verify the part # on your Banks module is the newer number...sorry, i don't have my old number for you to compair.

it didn't start doing it untill it started getting cold outside but will do it either warm engine or cool. i talk to banks brefly thay gave me a couple things to try but i havent had the time to do it yet cuz of school. i'm pretty sure it has 1 year warranty so i should be covered
