Feature-Rich Calibration for Modern Jeeps
At its core, the Superchips Flashcal+ is a diagnostic and calibration device that plugs into the OBD-II port and gives Jeep owners control over many key electronic parameters. Unlike basic handheld tuners, the Flashcal+ is designed for those who want utility without necessarily diving into performance tuning (though it is upgradable to Flashpaq for added power).
Some of its standout capabilities include:
Tire Size Adjustment
Jeeps often roll out of the garage with bigger tires than stock. Flashcal+ allows tire size calibration up to 41 inches, correcting the speedometer, odometer, and shift points for automatic transmissions. This is especially critical for JKs and JLs running 35s or 37s and wanting accurate road manners.
Axle Gear Ratio Calibration
After a gear swap (say, from 3.21s to 4.88s), improper calibration can throw off shift points and cause performance issues. The Flashcal+ lets users match the ECM to the new gear ratio for better drivability and reduced transmission strain.
Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) Adjustments
Whether you’re airing down for the trail or running a different wheel and tire combo, the Flashcal+ enables TPMS threshold adjustment or disablement (where legal), helping to eliminate nuisance dash lights.
Transfer Case Ratio Support
For those who have swapped in a Rubicon 4:1 transfer case or an aftermarket unit, the Flashcal+ can recalibrate for transfer case gear ratios, ensuring accurate shift behavior and dash readouts.
Lighting and Safety Features
Owners can enable or disable Daytime Running Lights, change lamp behavior for European spec lighting, and adjust fog light dropout settings. It also allows you to modify horn chirp on lock/unlock and customize headlight delay.
One-Touch Lane Change Adjustments
This lets you adjust how many times your blinker flashes with a tap—a small but useful touch.
Electronic Sway Bar and Locker Options (Rubicon)
For Rubicon models, Flashcal+ can recalibrate locker activation parameters and manage sway bar behavior to accommodate lift kits or aftermarket sensors.
Read/Clear Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs)
Basic scan tool functionality allows for quick troubleshooting without a visit to the dealer or shop.
