However, i was hoping some of you guys can help me out with a question...I got a service engine light when the SSTT was not put in the right way. I got it checked and found out it reads something with the TMAP. Once i got it checked the light went away...Does this mean the code went away? Or is it still stored and I need to get it cleared?

What version are you running, 29.2+? If so, yes the code is most likely stored and you need to clear it if it was related to the TMAP.

Find a buddy in your area with the BT tool or a shop with a GT1 to confirm.

Okay so now I understand whay I got no response from you...Now that I got codes from my SSTT, why didnt you disclose this to me when you first told me "you never got any codes" with your sstt? I searched your posts....(easy to do) I am currently trying to sell this unit, but I am asking you like a gentleman if you will refund my money...Please let me know becasue that would be the easiest and classiest thing for you to do as I can not use this in my car anymore due to my extended warranty and the possibility of voiding the warranty......

Let me know....or if you have somebody that may want this sstt, let me know.....

Thanks

Dude, he never got codes, and would normally not get codes if and when the SSTT is installed properly. Obviously, the ONLY reason he got, and you are getting codes is due to faulty installation. It's not his fault you got a code.
