Used bike purchase with TTS locked ECM
#21
The Blue VCI does indeed store the .MTE file, and the last map flashed through that VCI.
The MTE file is an extracted mirror image of whatever was in the ECM when first attached.
The last map through should be the .MT9 stage 1 map, easily adjusted for any change you wish to make, and tunable by any competent dyno shop
I would buy cables ( and send the FP back) and learn how to use Flight Recorder & V-tune. This does require something other than your phone, but much better results

Now if you do not have the original file from the ECM you can use the Emergency Unlock feature from our Website to remove the programming with the VCI. For the record we are not the only company that changes the lock on the ECM's too.

Sorry for delay in an update for those interested...
first off, thanks Steve for your help thru here and email. As I updated last week, I was able to get the VCI from the original owner. I took the bike to a local dealership and had them plug it in and the files were there! They were then able to reset to the stock map and unlock. From there I was able to load my FP3 and was all good. Nothing against TTS, but I have always had great results using the more standard FP3 tuner on my Harley’s. Bike is currently just a stage 1 with exhaust and hf intake. I’m going to obviously hold onto the TTS tuner and maybe in the future if I do some bigger engine upgrades, I will look into turning towards the TTS.
cheers everyone. Thanks for the help!
