I read my stock tune file form my 06 colorado 3.5L, saved the tune file on my desktop, but now when I open the tune file, a message comes up saying efi doesnt support this ecm :confused:

Heres a pic of the error I keep getting. I justt updated my V2 and firmware to the newest build (165 as of june '11) and I keep getting the message??? hmmm

well, I thought I updated the software, how/where can I check?

I open efilive scan and tune tool, and its version 8.2.1 build 156

Sorry I didn't see your version. Yours should be updated enough. When you read it, did you have an error message then? Maybe do a re-read.

I'll re-read it tonight, im thinking that was my problem. I never got a error message while reading, took 3 mins or so, just over 1000kb file. I only got the error when I tried to open the tune.

thanks.

Make sure your V7.5 software is up to date as well, should be dated June 8th and be 7.5.7 build 165.

Well still no luck. Updated my v2 with newest software and firmware, and re-read my colorado ecm, everything is fine untill I shut the key off and wait for ecm to reboot, and it comes up with the same error message as before... wtf.. :/

I know the ecm is supported because it will read it, so I dunno whats going on..

I also found a stock 3.7 liter colorado .tun file on here, I can open that tune up, make changes, save it etc etc, but not mine? How does thatt work out??

Can you Email your tune to support@efilive.com, it may very well be an OS we've not seen before.

Thanks for your email Andrew, Ive updated my firmware on my v2 and saved the software, but my computer wont let me uninstall my old version of 7.5 so I can install the new version. Looks like I'll be keeping this truck stock.

Why cant you uninstall the old V7.5? Do you have admin priviledges on the machine? If you installed it you should be able to uninstall it no problem...

Dunno, Ive decided it's not worth the hassle to mess around with a 220hp motor.

If I uninstall my old v7.5 then re install the updated version of 7.5 it will work, but my computer wont let me do it, so it's on the back burner for now.
