ultimate chip lock

[SteGenSyTy]

I have the 50# ultimate chip (round style) that has the T1F1-T2F7 programs and somehow the chip has gone into a lock. when you start the truck it is on T1F6 but does nothing when you try to adjust it. Eventually it pops up on the display "LOCK" and immediately follows with "KEY?" The previous owner had never set up the lock feature and didn't have the key. Prior to this occasion I could always change between the settings with no problems. Is there any way to rest the chip so the lock goes away? Thanks for your help!

im doing alot of research myself becasue i just installed the ultimate chip and i found a few articles talking about the lock feature. They all say that you need to enter the unlock code. I know this isnt much but maybe something.

The unit can be “locked” or “unlocked” by entering a code by pressing the
buttons in a certain order. This disables/enables the pushbutton switches
until the sequence is again entered. Consult the instructions that are
included with the chip for complete procedure.
Programs can be selected or switched at any time the vehicle ignition is on.
The display/switching unit requires power to operate and will not change
programs without being powered up.

The best method of setting the security (SEC) program is to shut the vehicle
off in whatever mode you were using, then turn the ignition on with engine
off and toggle to the SEC program. Use the method described above to
“lock” the unit, and turn the ignition off. The vehicle will not start now and
the settings cannot be changed. To run the vehicle again, turn ignition
on/engine off, unlock the unit as described above and toggle to desired
program. Vehicle will start in a normal manner at this point. Many users
have found that they can simply toggle to SEC to shut the motor off, then
lock the unit. This effectively does the same thing as turning off the ignition
key, which is shutting down the ignition/fuel system and saves them a step
in the process.
