    Default Efi live with autotap cable

    I have the latest build and i tried hooking up to a 2009 Chevrolet truck 2500 and on the control panel says no controller found. Will the autotap cable not work on this type of PCM with efi live??? I have had no other problems with other vehicles older than this

    You will need a software license key, I pm'd Tech Support.

    Which AutoTap cable do you have...?

    Which build of V7.5 software are you using (build 99...?)...?

    Oh, I don't think the AT cable will work with CAN... I'm not sure, I'll find out more.

    I'm almost certain the AutoTap will not do CAN vehicles. You will need to get a FlashScan V2 based product to cater for newer vehicles.

    The red AutoTap ATUSB cable is capable of connecting to CAN vehicle when using the AutoTap software. However, EFILive software does not support CAN vehicles when using the ATUSB cable. The EFILive software only supports VPW vehicles when using the ATUSB cable.
