    Exclamation Cant write vehicle HPT was purchased for

    I just bought HP Tuners and it came in today. My tuner sent me my file via email. I used the only two credits I bought with the tool on my vehicle this evening. I went to write my tune, and I am getting "unlicensed vehicle".
    2013 Grand Cherokee 5.7. VVT and MDS turned off.

    Vehicle was dyno tuned using HP Tuners, so the file is an HP tuners file.
    I bought my own MPVI2 and 2 credits to be able to tune this vehicle whenever I wanted.
    I plugged the tool into my vehicle, told it to use the two credits, and it's telling me unlicensed vehicle.
    I did not plug it into an other vehicle
    I am not trying to skate on my tuners credits for the vehicle, I bought my own.

    So what gives? I need this tuned NOW. I even paid for 2 day shipping so I could have this vehicle running this weekend.

    Have you spoken with HPT yet? The only thing I can recommend it when you have the VCM Editor open, at the top click on HELP and then Resync Interface and see if that makes a difference for you.

    I tried that to no avail. I've sent two support requests (one sat, and one about an hour ago) and have yet to hear back...

    According to Pete at HPT support, the tune file was created on an older PCM code base than the current PCM, and that is what is causing the issue.

    What I need is HPT to fix the issue. The tune file has already been paid for when the vehicle was originally dyno tuned. Now I bought my own tool and my own credits, and it seems the tune file sucked those up too. So now that file has sucked up 4 credits, and I still can't tune my car.
    The credits I bought to tune my vehicle with should be released so I can flash this tune.

    Support is getting me going...

    I have to pull the OEM file from the new PCM, and edit it, as my original tune is a different code base and won't flash to my current PCM.
