Can you find the matching *.blx file in the folder:
\My Documents\EFILive\V7\Bug reports

The blx files are labelled as upload (reading the PCM) or download (reflashing the PCM) and have the date and time encoded into the filename like this:

YYYYMMDD_HHMMSS_upload.blx

Can you find the *_upload.blx file that matches one of your upload attempts and send it to me at paul@efilive.com.

Regards
Paul

I had this same post on a different msg board and someone told me that it was probably my aftermarket radio and to pull the fuse...they were absolutely correct! I never read that this would be a problem but it was an easy fix! Thanks, Aaron

You're welcome.

Live and learn...:wave:

I wired a switch into mine now and ran it inside the cab, so I don't even have to pop the hood to flash mine anymore.

It's almost getting to the stage where we need to gather a collection of aftermarket radio brands and put them on a list of units that don't play ball. GM dealers must go crazy with this.

Cheers,
Ross
