Connect your PC to your FlashScan.

In the tunetool go Help->Register and position the popup so you can still see all the toolbars...

Then see post #1 or #2 of this (skip step 5): showthread.php?t=3064 (http://forum.efilive.com/showthread.php?t=3064)

still nothing........I've done a full flash before with a different PCM and
I recall something special I had to make the full flash button light up
I simply don't remember what.

Ok here is what I have so far.......the only OS I have this issue with
is a Vortec V6 all others light up the BURN button LS1, LS2, LQ9,.....

Is it not possible with the "Black Box" PCM ???

Correct, you cannot Full Flash a Vortec Black Box PCM or an Inline 6 P10 PCM.

Is it not supported by the software or the hardware (can it be done with the
tech II ?)

Not supported in EFILive, yes a TechII could do it.

you're KILLING me

Sorry man, wish it was believe me. What Id do to be able to flash different year OSs into my lowly P10 PCM. But before you get all angry, I guarantee you EFILive has a solid reason why they have not released it. Could be something as simple as simply not enough hours in a day to they were bricking some PCMs and couldnt recover them easily to not enough interest from everyone.

Well I wouldn't go so far as to say I'm angry..............I still firmly believe
My V2 is a excellent product......however this is just one more thing that
takes me off cloud 9. The other thing is no support for the 3.8L SC
I could change a supercharger pulley, fuel injectors, tune and make good
money.
