TBSS connection $11 error

[chuck0802]

I bought the software in 2005 to tune a 6.0 tahoe project and haven' t had to use it since 2006. So I am a little rusty. After downloading the new version 7.5 #86, I attempted to get into the PCM of my new purchase, 2008 TBSS. At first I thought it was a cable issue? Then I received this error >$11 Does anyone know what this means? Could it be that the pcm is locked from a previous tuner/owner? Upon attempt to read pcm, a warning lists it as not valid and do you want to read it anyway...or something like that. Any help will be greatly appreciated

Chuck,

Welcome to the forum...:cheers:

Also install V8.1 from here (http://www.efilive.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=48&Itemid=133)

Then read and understand the attached doc before performing the V2 bootblock/firmware upgrade.

Is the E67 only supported by V8.1?
Will the V8.1 work with my FSP V1?
Thank you.

I forgot how humbling the "learning curve" is.

V8 is for:
- V2 black box logging,
- V2 black box flashing (soon),
- updating V2 bootblock/firmware.

You still use V7.5 for passthru logging/flashing.

If you have V1 you don't need V8...

Oh, you have FlashScan V1... E67 requires V2.

V2 understands CAN and VPW buses, V1 only understands VPW.

I see. So, in order to gain access to the E67, I need to upgrade to V2. Thank you very much for the info.

Yes, you must have a FlashScan V2 in order to connect and download tunes from an E67 ECM (aka what our TBSSs have).
