I got your e-mail, thanks.

I finally got it read! I held the V1 in my hand, and when the lights would go out, I unplugged the usb from it and plugged it back in. I had to do this about 15 times to get the whole thing, but it...

Ok, I did something I wasn't supposed to, I think. I have not been able to read my PCM, but I did "program PCM calibrations" with a stock 98 tune off of holden crazy. All I changed was the cags, EGR...

I don't know what else I can give you guys. Should I bring my PC into my garage to see if that will stay connected? Is there anything in the Edit> properties> connection that I should change? Could...

I was doing: Flash-Read PCM calibrations. Isn't that what I have to do to save my original tune?
I disconnected the battery and the car runs again. I have no problem connecting to either tool, but...

Well the first V1 and cable never connected at all, so I do think there was something wrong with it, but that doesn't matter anymore. As of right now the car will not start. I think I need to...

OK, hooked up the scan tool today and did the validate PIDs and all seemed well. Shut down the scan tool and opened the tune tool and read the pcm. It made it 16k out of 512k and the USB, OBD, and...

Yeah its doing it in both vehicles. I can try it with another laptop. I got my z28 connected and when I started it the dashboard was reading 10k+ rpm and around 95-105 mph while at idle? Then I...

I got the dashboard stuff to work on the 05 TBlaze after selecting the pids, thanks. I logged while driving, then it disconnected and a box came up saying its trying to reconnect.

I don't know...

I did not have any there! I will try this. I will also check the voltage of the pins. Scarab, I did try to uncheck the high speed and it gave an error I don't recall, I will write it down next time....

UPDATE: Paul overnighted me a whole new package from NZ, and I was getting response for awhile. The buttons at the bottom were lit up unlike before, but I could not get the dashboard to work. When I...

Does anybody see what I am saying? Or am I wrong here?

Bloomington

It has never connected.

I really do appreciate all the people trying to help,and I'm sorry how that reply came off, but posting about problems or writing an email and waiting for responses just makes it more frustrating....

If its ok with you I would like to call this a loss and I will pay for my "used" license. I am so pissed off right now I can not explain how the last week has been. I put my cam in with the help of a...

My roommate has a 2005 trailblazer 4.2. When I connect the cable to his, the orange OBD light on the V1 was flashing, it did not do this on my camaro. When I selected his P10 and tried to connect I...

Joe, yes the lights did flash when connected without the usb. I am trying to find someone local in MN to help.

Paul, email sent.

thanks, Greg

I have been trying for a week, made 2 threads on here and ls1tech, and have not gotten an answer to why V1 won't detect my pcm. What the hell do I do?

The cables are connected but from what I can tell it dont see the pcm. It acts the same whether the key is on or off, or even if the cable is unplugged from the car or the V1. But I know there is...

Yes 97/98 GEN III, its a 98 Z28.

I installed a cam last week, which took less time than I have put into EFIlive so far, without even getting connected. Here is what it says in my "Console".

I tried connecting efilive V1 for the first time and get the error
