Thread: Battery Disconnect and DRD Question

    Battery Disconnect and DRD Question

    So I'll preface with the idea that this could all be in my head. I disconnected my battery and MM3 while wiring lights for my bumper. In the process, I accidentally smashed my USB cable too, but it still functions, just the catch prongs are goofy. Well on the first start up the MM3 gave me an error for a prestart something or other. So I shut it all off, disconnect USB and obd2, reconnect, key on, wait, start and all worked fine... until the MM3 lost connection which is when I discovered the messed up USB prongs. So I make sure all connections are good and restart. Now everything seems to be working properly, but I wonder if something got funny in the tuning because it seems to me that I'm idling rougher and making a lot more blue smoke at start up. Everything seems to be in order, except for my paranoia. So should I return to stock and then retune? Is there a chance something got funny or is it likely just in my head?

    2015 Ram 2500 with a majestic 6.7 Cummins and 68RFE. Fully deleted with MM3 and tunes from DoubleRDiesel. 5" Flo-Pro exhaust. S&B cold air intake. Custom sound system by Me. Proud American.

    Your Base Tune shouldn't be affected. If you're set up for 'send every key on' I suppose there could be trouble.

    I've ordered a new cable with a 90° on the MM3, the way it should have been to start with

    Nope, set up the way Ray recommended. Guess I'm just being paranoid. Thanks!
