I have seen weird things like that too. On 2016 Duramax cab and chassis the turn signals act stupid with the V2 plugged in. Being I know what is causing it I don't worry about it anymore.Quote:

When scanning/logging or when flashing/reading, the other modules on the CANLAN bus don't get immediate bus access and/or immediate response from the ECM, so they complain.
You may have to remove battery power and let the modules discharge, and then reconnect battery power and let the modules sync up among themselves.
I have another unit, it works perfect. By the way, when I disconnect the unit "whenever I encounter a failure" the car goes back to normal
Odd Boy, are both V2's Blue or is one a Black? Is it the same OBD-II cable from the V2?
both are blue but different cable. I can swap and get you the result today...
I connected a brand new wire, the same thing happens..... please try to help as soon as possible.
I was logging a 2016 LML yesterday and speedo, tach, and turn signals were delayed. I think it's just overloading or taking control of the can line.Quote:

Please use EFILive_Explorer to program in the attached firmware update into your FlashScan. This update has the same version number as the latest release (V2.07.95) so that you can swap between this firmware and the release firmware. The date on this firmware is Jan 25, 2016 so you can tell it apart from the release firmware.

will update it today and let you know ...Quote:

That pin is connected to the vehicle's low speed CAN network which may be interfering with the instrument cluster. FlashScan does not use pin 1. That pin was designed/reserved for an old Chrysler protocol that has never been implemented in FlashScan.Quote:

My G8 goes crazy if I plug in my V2 with the car running. It flashes contact dealer and then goes away. If you plug in before starting the car it doesnt do it.
will test and get back to u.
Interesting... it's as if the modules see that the canlan is already busy so they don't even try to talk on it.Quote:

Just curious, is there a fix for this? My 2000 C5 loses the radio and IP, and resets the clock when plugging the V2 into the OBD-II connector. Doesn't matter if the key is on or off before I plug it in.
Thanks!
