How can I tell
I just noticed on my new truck that the sticker says manufacture date 3/09. How can I tell if it has the pcm that will or won't except a smarty?

So much for the locked ECM issue?

Check with MADS about the locked ECM issue. I think the work around is only for ECM's that have had the lock downloaded after the fact with the latest dealer flash. You will need to verify this and not take it for fact.

it is not fixed yet. The latest software starting with 15 or 16 will warn you that the pcm is locked and cannot be updated. previous versions would just lock the pcm.

almost forgot, I believe there is a date on the pcm as well. There is a chance that your pcm was built before the 3/09 cut-off. But the safest way would probably be to check with smarty with one of the later software versions. Of course you do still have the option of a plug in module like the edge juice.
