Default Stolen Programmer?

My Hypertech Programmer got stolen out of my house recently. Am i effectively screwed? Am I going to have to get a whole new ecu or does anyone know of an alternate way to flash the jeep back to stock?

Crap that really suck, did they hit your house bad?

I would call Hypertech and ask them or email them tonight, also Darnell is there rep on here

techsupport@hypertech.com
(901)382-8888

I wondered about this too, also what if it got wet. I keep mine in my tuffy sec drawer in my jeep. Let us know what they say ok

Good Luck!

If you should ever take your jeep to a dealer and they reflash your computer with updates you will loose your Hypertech programming only. If you want your old program back right now the dealer can put it back using your vin number.
