    Default EFI re-flash problems...

    Trying to flash a tune i have and during the reflash red letters will pop up and say ''battery voltage to low or high for reflash''. Then a window will pop up and say the ecm has no O.S try a full reflash again. i have replaced the battery and tried everything else i know to do....any ideas?

    Scan it and see what the voltage is if you can.

    Do you have anything major drawing power like lights or lift pump?

    I cant get it to record any data in the scan side i cant remember right off what it says but it wont let me log at all. I always unplug my liftpump and kill the lights when i turn the switch on so i dont know what would be drawing that much! Im no pro on EFI either i just know enough to cause problems

    Is the battery new? What version of the software are you running? They will probably want you to update to the latest version to start helping you with the issue.

    Per your first quote, after you try to connect with the Scan program, can you show us the exact error message you get?
