Ok, I haven't played with my tune for a while, so I though I do a little logging today and make some changes. Problem, Scan tool won't connect to the PCM. It will connect to the cable and the cable will black box log and can even flash in a new tune, but the laptop won't connect to the pcm with the scaner. I get this in the console.

I am usually the last one to post stuff like this, but I have tried everything. Cig fuse is good. Got the lasted USB drivers, just installed the software on this computer a couple of weeks ago (Brand new Dell, worked then). Tried unplugging and replugging every thing back in, rebooted the laptop a couple of times. Held my tongue to the left AND the right, and still, nothing. Won't connect to the PCM. Other then that it works fine, lol. Any ideas??

Didn't recognize you on ls1tech.

For grins, try disconnecting everything, turn the engine/pcm on, connect the FS to the vehicle, connect your laptop to FS, the try logging again.

.. depending on what version you have you might need to explicitly select the pcm and ID to get it to work... had that issue recently. (EDIT/PROPERTIES/CONNECTION page)
