Hey guys, I’ve just finished tuning a car with the RR and went to flash the original ls1 ecu that had been tuned with hp, it’s saying it’s locked and won’t flash it, I can read the tune with hp but can’t flash with efilive, i had this happen with another one a year or so ago and just got a different ecu, this time I tried putting earth onto the reset pin but it made no difference.
Any help would be appreciated
Thanks
Pete.

This has me curious about how the lock function works on both suites of software. It sounds like you can't cheat and use EFILive to unlock a tune locked by HPT? If that's the case, what about PCM Hammer?

i could read the pcm with hp and sse the file but couldn't re flash it with efilive, since then i held earth on the reset pin and it started to full flash with efilive, half way through i took the earth off and it stopped flashing, now its dead and cant read it with hp or anything, wondering if it can be recovered with tech2 or something weather its worth sending away or not im not sure.
