    Default Can't Scan

    Just purchased the v2 for my truck. The truck is tuned by a tuner with a ecm tune. I am able to flash the ecm and communicate with the truck but I can not scan. It gives me a message, it tells me "only external and calculated PID's can be logged when connected to the flash scan ONLY

    An OBDII must be detected before OBDII PID'S can be logged.

    I have followed the steps to proper install and use of the program. Maybe I am goofing something up

    Did you click the green connect button (in upper left corner of scantool window)...?

    Did you enter your VIN and OS (under the File menu)...?

    In the scantool, goto the F6 Console tab and copy/paste what is says.

    Either the PCM is not powered up (key on) or flashscan is the selected controller.
