This guy's did a good job with this video step by step. The first day was a try myself and 2 hours later, ending with a headache, but after watching this video was way easy. THANKS BRO YOU, VIDEO HELP ME A LOT
Good video man, I don’t have a l5p but always enjoy your diys. I really do like the cruise/tach for sotf. I used to run a switch for my 6.7 psd but got rid of it because i thought it was causing issues (also never took it out of 5 lol)
@darkirondiesel I'm running a 75hp ccs tune as well and get really good mileage on my ho but vgt position doesn't close all the way during cold weather warm up.
I’ve always liked duramax engines. They are fast and I think they are reliable. But now a days they are all nice and reliable for the most part. So if I were truck shipping I’d just go drive them all and pick the one you like best. My next truck will either be a duramax or powerstroke just to switch things up a bit.
Duramax Tuner and PPEI are both saying they are working with HP Tuner on the ECM hack for the 24s. Until that happens, no go. I just messaged them August 25, 2024.
So I’m looking at doing a DPF/DEF Delete. Can you do a video or comment here what the different types of delete there is. Is it required to remove the EGR? Or can we do just this tune and the exhaust? Or is the tune all you really need?
Originally the L5P you had to do an ecm swap right, similar to ‘22 and later Cummins trucks? Do you think this unlocking procedure will be available for the Cummins?
Great question, and to be completely honest, I don’t know. I’ve been hearing tuning companies saying their close to figuring it out, but I’ve been hearing that for over a year now. It took them quite a few years to figure it out for the L5P so hopefully one day they figure out the Cummins, but I wouldn’t hold your breath.
so you tuned first before the delete, when you deleted it did you need to upload a different tune for being no emissions? how is your truck not throwing codes for the emissions is it the can bus plugs?
The tune that comes with it I did on the other video is an “emissions off” tune which turns off the emission system and blocks any codes from popping up.
To do the" resync interface" @ 7:25 , do i have to have the mpvi hooked into the truck? I got it all hooked up to my computer, but the program isnt picking it up. I dont have the truck yet, but was wanting to get everything ready that i can before hand
What do you mean when you said Emissions on and off. Im doing a full delete on my 2017 DURAMAX. My service exhaust fluid light keeps blinking and the Engine light is on. Will the tune take care of all the emissions codes (the light that keeps blinking) or will I need to do a force regen or something to make the light go away before tuning?
If you get the kit I used shrsl.com/4ajh9 then it should remove the emission light but it might take a couple tune revisions to get rid of it. That’s why you always tune first and confirm the tune was successful before removing any parts from the truck.
If anyone could answer this question please do- I’m already unlocked and I have a towing tune. I would like to get sotf . Since my ecm is already unlocked do I still need to get 8 credits? I would also like to get trans tune I have a 2022 Duramax dually
I have a truck that already was deleted with a HP computer but the computer showed the wrong vin and year and all of a sudden acted like it wasnt deleted so I replaced it with a new HP computer and now I have to delete the new computer, but emissions are already off. I bought the vcm with credits.
Um quick question say you are doing this to more rhen one vehicle.do you have to reinstall this update in oreder to continue the proccess or is it just it is now o .the computer so no need
Here's a burning question from me with a brief background. For the 2nd time in 6 months, it appears my DEF tank needs to be replaced due to a faulty sensor. I currently have the "Service Emission System" code up with the limp mode mileage countdown starting. Do I need to have the dealership resolve this, or will the tuning process clear this out? Ordering this delete kit in the next week or so, can't wait!!
If you wanted to do transmission tuning would you just enable the TCM option where you said not to when selecting ECM? Only thing holding me back is I wanna do it all at once
I'm running motor ops sotf running. I usually stay in tune 1 which is the 85horse tune and might occasionally use tune 2 or even 3 for a smile. Never use tune 4 or 5 because I don't have a built transmission. I've had zero issues just pure joy and peace of mind
Can’t. GM can control the software over the air. They are going to dictate what the truck can and can’t do. Maybe if switching ECU is option it’ll work
Duramax Tuner and PPEI are both saying they are working with HP Tuner on the ECM hack for the 24s.. Until that happens, no go. I just messaged them August 25, 2024.
Edge has the cheapest unlock option out there now I believe with the bonus of the monitor after the fact. Can load the custom tunes in the device as well for under a grand.
So I have a 23 L5P and I had previously installed the Edge Cts3 Evolution that had the unlock for TCM and ECM. Being that I had already unlocked the Modules would that cause any conflict with the HP tuner software when I want to T&D in a few months and if not would I still be able to use my CTS3 as just a monitor since it has the Evolution tuning software installed in it? Thanks!
If you get this kit shrsl.com/4ke0x it comes with the mpvi3 tuner and e41 unlock kit AND it comes with the delete tunes. It’s everything you need to delete the truck.
I used to have a 2018 l5p and deleted it myself and I traded it for a newer 2021 l5p can I reuse my e41 unlock device on this one? Or do I need to contact a tuner?
Hello friend, thank you for your videos. I wanted to ask if I need to delete the DEF system from a 2020 Dodge Ram turbo diesel PCM Cummins CM2450B. Can it be done with HP Tuners, or could you advise me on how to do it? Thank you very much.
Dumb question but if you had to revert and put the emissions stuff back on....can you upload the stock tune back to it and put everything back in place?
I definitely recommend adding that plug kit if you’re thinking you may have to do that in the future, just because if you don’t all your open sensor plugs will corrode from moisture
This is a great question. If HP tuners doesn’t do the tune, who is doing it? Just curious of the tune quality. I’ve got a 2017 and ready to get this done
Quick question this might sound dumb but i got my kit from spelab and the kit doesnt list anything about the can bus plug kit or neither the unlock tool for the ecm it only came with the hp tuner tool, also will i need to biy credits for the tuner?i need help i will appreciate it.
I bought my kit from spelab, you need to buy your can is plug kit separately which they sell and you’ll have to buy the unlock tool from hp it’s like $350 I believe, It says it suppose to come with credits but I’ll find out here in a while I’m working on download all software now
Hey @jerrt22 thanks for helping out i would like to get in contact with you if you can bud i got the unlock tool and the credits what will i need next i know i need to read the files but after that who do i send the stock file too again thanks for helping.
No I believe you need an unlocked TCM for that, but you could email them about that. Or contact GDP tuning after you purchase the kit and they can set you up (that’s who writes the tunes for the diesel dudes)
Then make sure the tune works and you don’t have any lights before removing any of the parts. You might have to try a couple tune files to reset the emission light/message then tune the delete tune on. Just don’t physically delete the truck until you’re 100% sure the tune worked. I’d unplug everything on the emission system first and make sure the truck starts, runs and drives with no engine lights or messages, then do the delete.
You can get emission compliant tuning but you’ll still use def and your emission system will function normally. If you are wanting to delete the truck you have to tune it then remove the exhaust at the very least.
I just finished delete and tuned my truck, this also happened to me without any codes prior to install. I have a 2018 Chevy. I am currently contacting Diesel dudes and HP tuners and waiting for response. Did you have any luck solving the issue ?
Yes credits are sent with it. Just finished mine as we speak. Also sent a 5 position selector which I thought was odd. Now I have to figure out where to put that
I can’t be the only guy wondering if you can just tune the egr and def systems from working? Why does the egr system have to be removed? Imagine the valve would just remain closed. leave everything in tact but remove entire dpf system. is there really no way of accomplishing this with a tuner even now? Hypothetically speaking
The egr can be left on the truck, you just need to unplug it. The exhaust NEEDS to be changed though. If you wanted to keep a stock look you could drop the factory exhaust, take it apart and punch out all the internal filters then bolt it back up under the truck. The main thing is getting the restriction out of there.
Left it alone on this truck. It’s a completely separate module so if you want you can buy TCM tunes from a company of your choice and use the mpvi3 to install them. I think you need an unlocked TCM though.
Why do we have to go thru the headache with the computer of download this and that and transfer and move file here. Hell just make it pick your tune and then plug a play! Some of us it too old for this crap….
If anyone could this question please do- I’m already unlocked and I have a towing tune. I would like to get sotf . Since my ecm is already unlocked do I still need to get 8 credits? I would also like to get trans tune I have a 2022 Duramax dually
If you have the mpvi3 device that programmed your truck the first time you shouldn’t need to buy credits. If you are buying a new mpvi3 device and using that to tune the truck then yes I believe you would need credits. The credits link the vin of the truck to the mpvi3 device. So if you use a new mpvi3 device you have to buy credits again. At least that’s my understanding of it.

Damn can't wait for install video. I have a 19 Duramax & got all the stuff sitting my garage for a year now but have no idea what to do first.
Editing it as we speak!
Hell yeah ive got downpipe and kit waiting as well cant wait for this vid

THANKS BRO YOU, VIDEO HELP ME A LOT
I just picked up a delete kit and your vid was top notch, thank you for clarifying lots of questions I had. 🙌
Gonna do mine once i get my parts in a bit here,this should help out quite a bit.thanks a lot
Good video man, I don’t have a l5p but always enjoy your diys.
I really do like the cruise/tach for sotf. I used to run a switch for my 6.7 psd but got rid of it because i thought it was causing issues (also never took it out of 5 lol)
Haha ya the temptation is real. I’m just running a single 75hp tune on my Cummins for that exact reason.
@darkirondiesel I'm running a 75hp ccs tune as well and get really good mileage on my ho but vgt position doesn't close all the way during cold weather warm up.
I truely appreciate all the detailed information. Cant wait for the '24
Awesome, thank you for showing the details and how the steering wheel works. 👍
this is awesome content! Making the L5P look and sound less intimidating lol
Awesome video man
The video was perfect man, thanks a lot 👍
Glad it helped!
Awsome video, thank you so much man! Very helpful
Thank you so much. Well done
Do happen to have an instructional video for the transmission tuning process? Thank you!
What’s your thoughts on the gmc ? Should do a compare video on your 5th gen and this l5p pros and cons etc

Even the Banks Derringer is still not available for the 2024

Any word on 2024 L5P delete?
can i flash the stock read file back into truck or do i need a delete file? i just want to remove the factory speed limiter for now

I have a question. Why did you tune with HP Tuners? Dosent the kit from thedieseldudes comes with the tune plus all the parts you need?

How much is it to delete one of these new L5P's in CAD? Did they figure out how to unlock these ECMS?
If anyone could answer this question please do- I’m already unlocked and I have a towing tune. I would like to get sotf . Since my ecm is already unlocked do I still need to get 8 credits?
I would also like to get trans tune I have a 2022 Duramax dually
You mentioned the level of the DEF is important. How does one see the actual level? My 2017 just says "Good".
So..if i buy the "HP Tuner kit" i have to buy tune credits? Are tune credits from HP Tuner as well or from a seperate "Tuner"?
I have a truck that already was deleted with a HP computer but the computer showed the wrong vin and year and all of a sudden acted like it wasnt deleted so I replaced it with a new HP computer and now I have to delete the new computer, but emissions are already off. I bought the vcm with credits.

Mine don’t have the read ECM button? On the VCM
I know they were having some major issues with the SOTF on the L5P. Have they got the kinks sorted out with that now and its not longer bricking ecms?
I’ve never heard of guys bricking their ecms on an L5P so yes I’d say it’s sorted out.
I'm running motor ops sotf running. I usually stay in tune 1 which is the 85horse tune and might occasionally use tune 2 or even 3 for a smile. Never use tune 4 or 5 because I don't have a built transmission. I've had zero issues just pure joy and peace of mind
How do you know if emissions on tuning? And emissions off tuning?
The tuning will tell you? Or the tuner company?
You buy this kit, it’s what I’m using in the video, and it comes with emissions off tuning. shrsl.com/4ke0x
What about the DEF tank? Can it be removed? Or does it have to stay ?
You can remove it
Thanks ..what is link for this "tune kit"
Is it OK to put vodka in it and plumb it into the cab?
Does the unlock
Box come with the delete kit? I have mpvi3 but there’s no ‘unlock box’ that came with that.
Yes the kit I linked comes with the mpvi3 tuner and the e41 upgrade kit (unlock box)
When can we delete the 2024 L5P's?
Can’t. GM can control the software over the air. They are going to dictate what the truck can and can’t do. Maybe if switching ECU is option it’ll work

What kind of power increase did you see just by the delete and tune
I didn’t have my dyno set up when I made this video so I never got to test it
After tuning I was getting code P0700 and others that wouldn’t clear. Luckily disconnecting the battery reconnecting and checking no codes appeared.

After upgrading the ECM and uploading the tunes, is it okay to still drive before doing the delete?
For a little bit ya but they don’t recommend you drive more then 200 miles like that. It can damage your engine. And keep it on the lowest setting.
Which model unlock box is this? Is it on HP tuners website?
Not sure but it comes with this kit shrsl.com/4ajh9

Okay if i tune my truck and go this route i can drive my truck everyday without doing a full delete?
You can get emission compliant tuning but you’ll still use def and your emission system will function normally. If you are wanting to delete the truck you have to tune it then remove the exhaust at the very least.
So on 2020s do you have to do a force regen?
I don't think there's any way to, at least on my truck there doesn't seem to be.

If you have the mpvi3 device that programmed your truck the first time you shouldn’t need to buy credits. If you are buying a new mpvi3 device and using that to tune the truck then yes I believe you would need credits. The credits link the vin of the truck to the mpvi3 device. So if you use a new mpvi3 device you have to buy credits again. At least that’s my understanding of it.
@ my tuner did it so it was his so I don’t have one, but do I need all 8 credits since the ecm is unlocked or that doesn’t matter it’s 8 regardless
