Do you know anyone relatively local with a flashpaq? Id try clearing the codes and see if it works... this will rule out"coincidence" and put you in the same boat at everyone else

Unfortunately, no. If you know anyone in the Omaha metro area with one, let me know! I'm not even sure if it would work with my Jeep because Superchips doesn't support the CRD. I tried clearing it with a different code reader but it didn't even find any codes. It could be a coincidence, but it seems highly unlikely at this point plus, our Jeep has been regularly maintained. Looks like I may need to buy a junkyard FDCM that has the old software.

Superchips doesn't support CRD tuning, but that's independent from the OBD functions... your drivetrain has the same modules as the rest of ours so I don't see a reason it wouldn't work.
From what I've read if the update caused the problem all they need to do is reflash it until it works. Sometimes it's taken 3-4 times of reflash and then it seems to work.
You're right, didn't think about it like that. I don't understand why only the Superchips have been successful in clearing the codes.
This only works temporarily, it always comes back it seems. From what I understand, the only "solution" is to get a junkyard FDCM that hasn't had the recall performed on it or you can send your FDCM to blown7 on JeepForum and he can reflash it to the old software (he has StarScan).

Makes sense but I can't imagine the JKs using the same FDCM because they don't have ELSDs or the NV245 transfer case. Isn't the FDCM's only function to operate those systems? Does it even matter if they aren't the same FDCMs? Sorry I'm asking so many questions, I'm just extremely intrigued by the QDII system. I've learned so much over the last few hours since finding out about my 4WD error.
Edit: Stupid question maybe, but does the JK even have an FDCM? It seems that the only reason our Jeeps have them is because it controls the NV245 and the ELSDs, which the JK has neither.
