Reading Your Stock Tune
(Step 1) Install Iron Loader tuner into vehicle.
(Step 2) Start by plugging your Iron Loader unit into your OBDII port in your car. Your unit will power up and bring you to the main screen.
(Step 3) Press the “Tuning” button in the top left corner of the screen.
(Step 4) In the next step you will need to select the Brand of vehicle you have. (ex. Jeep)
(Step 5) Then you will need to select the model. (ex. Wrangler)
(Step 6) Now you will select the version of your car. (ex. 3.0 EcoDiesel)
(Step 7) Once you have finished selecting the Make, Model and Version of your car… You will need to follow the on-screen prompts to read the stock map from your ECU. (It will say “Stock file not present. Do you want to start the read operation?)
(Step 8) Once the read of the stock file is complete, you will need to go to your computer and load the Iron Loader software in order to pull the map off of your Iron Loader unit and send it to us for tuning. (If your PC is capable, the software is located on the Iron Loader and will automatically download to your computer, otherwise please follow the link in the next step.)
(Step 9) Plug your Iron Loader into your computer using the provided USB cord. A program installer will start up and try to install the BB Flasher software. (Sometimes, depending on your computer's security settings, you will need to allow the installer to download the program.) If not, please download the program installer via this link: https://www.dropbox.com/s/obw7x7c1wl1oav8/SetupBB_Flasher.exe?dl=0
(Step 10) Once the installation wizard has finished, it will automatically start the Iron Loader software. When the program starts, you will need to click on the “Download data” tab.
(Step 11) Click the “Start” button and the program will save your stock map to your computer.
(Step 12) Click browse and choose a good location to save your stock file and make sure you don’t lose it! (Creating a new folder and using it for only your tune files would be the best)
(Step 13) Once you have completed the save of the original ECU map, you will need to send it to us for tuning. Please send us the file via email to [email protected] multiple files may be saved from the stock file read, please send all files if necessary. Please include your NAME and ORDER NUMBER on the email so we can identify your order.
(Step 14) Once we receive your tune, we will need about 1-2 business days to be able to make the adjustments necessary for your car and modifications. (Please be sure to save this file in the same folder as your stock file on your computer. Do not lose this file as this is your new tune for your vehicle!)
