Updated the tune on my 2012 JKU w/auto using the latest tune (RIPP36_2.0) BACK IN JANUARY. I've updated the Trinity T-1000, but I still get the Check engine light come on after a couple of days of driving. Used the tuner to read the codes: P113E and P113D. Both of which come up as unknown. If there is any forum that has the answers, it's going to be JeepLab. Anyone here run into this?

I thru ripps tune out the window after a week of installing the kit and had a dyno guy tune my vehicle. Best thing ive ever done

I think they are O2 sensors.

Did you contact ripp about it? Obviously you are running the most updated tune right?

A quick search finds that those codes are "O2 Sensor 1/1 Slow Response (High Frequency)" and "O2 Sensor 2/1 Slow Response (High Frequency)". I believe that is the two upstream O2 sensors.

Can't really find any more about those codes, except this technical set of slides from some presentation, which doesn't seem to spell it out in plain English at any point: http://www.sae.org/events/training/symposia/obd/presentations/2009/d3halzatorski.pdf

My prior tune was flawless; no CEL. I've been running the SC since November of 2013. Jeep only has 44K miles. How can both sensors go bad so soon?
Called Ripp and was told to update the Trinity T-1000 tuner and that should solve the problem. Didn't resolve the issue. I thought I read somewhere that some of the T-1000 tuners were causing the canned tune from Ripp(ripp36_2.0) to run rich or something and cause the CEL to come on?

Foxsat71

I've looked at the FTC list of codes and I don't see p113e or P113D in the list. I see p013a- O2 sensor slow response.

I think your best bet is to continue talking to RIPP about the problem. Have you told them that the update did not solve the problem? Have they responded?

I don't recall if I did or not. I'm going to Unmarry the tuner from the jeep, update the tuner on more time, and start over again. Does anyone know how to reset the jeep computer to erase what it has learned? I've read on a different forum to disconnect the + terminal and touch it to the -(neg) terminal. Any thoughts.

Just disconnect the battery for a minimum of three minutes. That should reset the pcm.

UselessPickles

Here's the reset procedure: http://www.quadratec.com/jeep_knowledgebase/article-89.htm

If I were you I would do it in this order:

1) Unmarry the Trinity (install original backup tune).
2) perform the factory reset procedure.
3) double check that the Trinity is really updated. Some updates cannot be applied while the Trinity is "married" to a vehicle.
4) double check that you have the latest tune from RIPP.
5) install the RIPP tune.


I really doubt the factory reset will have any affect. It mostly resets things like long term adaptive memory (fuel trims, etc). I know for a fact that long term fuel trims are already reset every time you install a tune. But you might as well do it just to be sure you are starting fresh with everything.

Nope. Not enough to really reset everything. See the link in my previous post. Disconnecting the battery for a while will only clear out some trouble codes, but won't reset long term adaptive memory.

I've had the P113D code many many times. About every 100 miles and clear it when the jeep starts to develop a miss at about 2000rpm. It's been way fustrating and I've contacted Ripp and sent them data files. All I get from that is more frustration. I'm trying to get with a local tuner but they are few and far between where I live. My jeep is not a daily driver and thank God for that or I would have sold it. I love the sound of the whine and the power but not sure if this was a good mod to do. Not sure what tune you have but I have the high alt pulley and added a catch can and when I try to revert back to the " original canned" Ripp tune the jeep runs horrible. It revs up for no apparent reason and has no power. Let me know if you solve the issue cuz I'm feeln the exact pain. FYI. I've disconnected the battery and unmarried and remarried my programmer back to the jeep. Made no difference.

"Bullfighter", I don't have the High ALT Pulley on mine. I'm not, nor have I ever experienced the phantom revs either. I'm currently running canned tune (ripp36_2.0) and this is the tune with which I started to get the CEL codes. I'm going to go outside now and Unmarry the T-1000 tuner then reset the PC according to "Useless Pickles" then update the tuner (again) and finally reload the tune to the jeep. If only Ripp could recommend a shop in SoCal that could perform and troubleshoot. I'll let you know how it all comes out.

Did everything I said I was going to do. Drove about 50 miles last night; no issues at all. This morning I left to get 35" Tires installed and CEL turns on. Drove to the shop 7 miles away, had the tires installed, and just before I left the shop I read the CEL codes using the Trinity tuner to read the codes. P113E & P113D; I DIDN'T clear the codes; I just drove home so I could use my AEV procal to calibrate my speedometer. That was successful, but on my way to the store I noticed the CEL was no longer illuminated. I can't explain that, but I will continue to monitor and keep ya posted.

They said its most likely going to be a bigger intercooler, larger charge pipes, slightly higher boost pulley a new belt and updated tune Thank you for the comeback and Foxsat I'm sorry I didn't mean to hijack your post. I gotta laugh on the fact Ripp said " in a month". They've told me that on the phone and on Twitter that same thing about all their soon to be released products. Eight months later.....nothing. Anyway I gotta steam a bit on the only fix is to buy more and replace what I've got. Not a good solution they have for a several thousand dollar mod. Btw I've got the smaller pulley and the different program ( Ripp36 2.2B) so now a bigger cooler? They've had my data logs and best they come up with is something isn't installed right. This is not the case. Over a year later and sorry that's not it. Jeep screams but after about 50-100 miles into clearing a code and reprogramming it misses and re-throws a P113D code. Still has power but misses. I'm with Pickles, should've never messed with it in the fist place. Sorry for airing my dirty laundry but jumped at the fact somebody finally has the same problem as me. Btw, I'm convinced the jeep is forgetting or somehow losing the new programming. It runs very good and smooth until it starts to learn its fuel curves and then it runs bad again.

Negative. The CEL came back on after a few miles. I must have cleared it by accident. Also, no hijacked thread. Any info on people's experience with RIPP SC is welcomed. I did however, find an interesting note in the Diablo Manual. I'm at work now but will post later today.

I dont have an SC I've been on the fence about them for SOOO long. Guys in my local club have them. Ive driven a few. They are good. Mostly. The autos less than the sticks.

The builds those guys have are heavy stupid builds. Pile as much crap on as they can. So that review is not with optimized jeeps.

Nobody around here has one on theirs and when people hear it they either are amazed or think it's a serious vacuum leak. Haha. If your on the fence and have drove them and still can't decide than you probably answered yourself on to get one. Yeah, skip it. Why cause a headache if you don't need to. Again I'm glad I didn't get an auto. And this jeep doesn't have a lot of crap piled on it

Dont know if this applies to you but there is a TSB I found for other pentastar applications with this fault. If this is the case I think you need to:

Go to the dealer
Return PCM to stock
Have it flashed
Install RIPP tune and send them the now new backup file to have their additions made to it.

Not yet. I completely forgot I had the AFE loop delete Y-pipe on my jeep. So when I first updated my tune I didn't mention it to Ripp. I spoke to them about 2 weeks ago and they confirmed that it would cause CEL's. They said to Unmarry the unit and start over. I also read that the radio, A/C, etc. should be turned off while loading the tune. Furthermore, when prompted to cycle the ignition on and/or off, to do it slowly. I will Unmarry the tune this weekend and start over. I will send Ripp the new info Monday. I will post the results soon after.

I just got off the phone with Ripp (cause they have my unit and it needed rebuilt by Vortech after 5,700 miles) and while I was on the phone I asked them about your loop delete throwing codes and they confirmed that it could. "Won't always but sometimes". Anyway good to hear your moving in the right direction. I was just wondering since I'm in a similar predicament BUT soon will be getting a custom dyno- tune and I replaced all O2 sensors and installing a wideband to cover all the bases. When I get the wideband bung installed I'll post the pics of where the bung was installed to help you or anybody else who wants to put a WB on a 3.6. Ripp says good to go and put after the Y-pipe. I'm more of a believer of the sensor before the cats just like I've been told on here and what I've been told by everybody who uses them but once you see the cats, pre-cats my be impossible. Again the WB info may help you if you go that route.

I actually bought the afe y pipe to put the wide band on that instead of drilling the factory pipes. So you've been having problems since you installed it? I don't have the loop delete but I do have the wideband. I wouldn't worry about drilling your stock pipe. Drill, weld...good to go. Easier than cutting into the stocker and clamping up and you save a couple bucks even if you have a exhaust shop do it. They give you a plug for the bung if you pull out the wideband sensor. Let us know how the wideband turns out. Interested to see how it goes. I haven't had time yet to put mine on. Got the gauge installed and looking good but not wired up yet. And to may be answer your question : yes Ripp says you'll need a different tune when you delete the pipe. Foxsat is possibly dealing with that problem right now. It throws a code. After you install the pipe, call Ripp and get a different tune or possibly get tuned from a local tuner after you install the wideband.

So far it's been fine. No "check engine light". It seems more responsive. However, transmission does not shift from 2nd to 3rd at a reasonable RPM. Even if I'm accelerating mildly, transmission will shift at around 3200 - 3500 RPM. I'll be able to drive it more now that I have front DS and Yeti steering linkage installed and front end aligned. Just need to find a 1 5/8" tie rod bracket to install steering stabilizer.

Did you uninstall the RIPP tune before they updated your jeep and then re-install the RIPP tune afterwords? This may be a dumb question however I've heard to do so you must go back to the stock tune before you can update the PCM. I've thought about doing so to smooth out my edges but leary of a tech messing with the tune from RIPP and sending the jeep haywire cuz going back to stock would have to be done at the dealership cuz mine will not run on the stock tune anymore. And again, what year is your Jeep? Thanks for the update!!
