Help Updating My Smarty Jr

I can't figure out how to update my JR. I've read through many threads and seen the instructions on the MADS website, but I still can't figure out how to update this thing. PLEASE HELP, I don't know what I'm doing. I would like to know what to download, open, and update my JR. If someone has simple instructions for computer retards like myself. Thanks so much.

Hey..looking for some advice. I just plugged in the SMARTY JR to my rig and set it to the performance setting. The truck seems to have ALOT of get up (I couldn't really test it===the roads were wet and the tires were spinning.

Anyways, it rides great, but I noticed my turn signals are SLOW to blink along with highbeams to lowbeam setting. It takes twice as long now. What gives?

Thanks!

I have the same year as you but haven't noticed any problems like this. try to set it back to stock and try the lights again to see if its the JR. My guess is the two are unrelated.
