    If your stereo shuts off and turns back on when you first hit read that I don't think you'll get it to work without take the precautions above. That's what mine does to :(

    You have to double click on the downloaded file to run it, which will update all the EFILive files.

    Got it to read just fine when I pulled the radio and onstar fuses.

    Thanks!

    You would be better off returning the engine to stock, then save the stock file. Once you do this, you can reinstall the Hypertech (If that is what me meant!) then you could save a file of that tune.
    If Hyperchips (?) is a plug in like the Juice, you don't need to remove it before you save the stock program. (At least this is the way I understand it!)

    You won't toast an ECM just trying to read it, worst case it will just tell you that you are locked out from attempting to read, in that case, you are stuck and will need to send the ECM back to the company that provided the tune to have it restored to stock.

    Jeff, are you still needing to do this?.
    I have heard if you wait about 20-30secs after turning the IGN on it can help with the onstar.
