Important information

New ECM Support: E83 (Service #12636386)
We have added the ability to read and flash this ECM, however, no calibration files have been provided in this beta release, we are just looking for stock tunes to be Emailed in.
The E83 is currently used on the following US vehicles: (there maybe other European / Asian Chevrolet branded markets also using this ECM)

• 2011-2012 Chev Cruze 1.8L (LUW)
• 2009-2011 Chev Aveo 1.6L (LXV)
• 2009-2010 Pontiac G3 1.6L (LXV)
• We also expect the new 2012 Chevrolet Sonic to use the E83.

Bosch gas ECM read/flash:

This beta also gives users the ability to read and flash the Bosch E55, E69 & E77 ECM's. It is important to understand that EFILive is not actively working on providing a full tuning solution for these ECM's. We have however had a number of customers request that we allow the ECM's to be read and flashed using V8 (V2 or Autocal) as they are using tuning packages from Europe that allow them to save files in open .bin formats. All they wanted was a way to read/flash the ECM's.

There is no stream option for these and it will cost you $99 per vehicle. There has not been extensive on vehicle testing for these ECM's, hence, it's beta.

Script Files
Script files have been updated. The latest script files must be copied to FlashScan/AutoCal devices to maintain compatibility with the latest V2.07.17 firmware.

Known Issues:

Issue #1

Sometimes at the start of a read or flash operation the V7.5 software will complain that it cannot communicate with the FlashScan device. Sometimes after clicking [Ok] the software is able to reconnect. Sometimes you need to restart the read or flash procedure and other times you need to exit and restart the Tuning Tool application.
We are trying to find a set of actions that can reliably reproduce that situation. If you know of any way to cause that error to occur reliably, please let us know at support@efilive.com

Issue #2
Attempting to read a CMB/CMC controller using standalone reading (BBR) when no vehicle is connected to FlashScan/AutoCal may cause FlashScan/AutoCal to hang. In that case you should power cycle FlashScan/AutoCal to regain control.

Reporting Issues:

If you discover any problems/faults, please make a note of them in this thread.

V7.5.7 Build 175 (July 31, 2011)

• Fixed address errors for table B1848 in E37 12628330, 12617248 and E67 12628999, 12635947.
• Added two more limiting tables, E2536 & E2567 for Cummins.
• The blue registration card "License Type" descriptions now correctly match the V7.5 licensing options in the "Register EFILive" Window.
• Lowered H0101 hard-limit by 1% to prevent extremely high values from causing the PCM to fail.
• Added three new states for the GM.TCCMODE PID: "Slew Releasing", "Slew Applying" and "No Change".
• Removed FRPADES and FRPACOM from the V8 E35A (LBZ) and E35B (LMM) definitions.
• Fixed V7.5 EFILive Firmware Programmer to correctly recognize the difference between V2.04.xx and V2.05.xx boot block versions.
• Fixed out of range speedo calibrations not being detected reliably.
• Fixed problem that caused calibrations (tagged in red) such as the VATs patch for E37 to not be visible for some users. I.e. those who are using FlashScan devices purchased new in the past few months.
• Fixed LS1 speedo calibration H0104 showing as out of range when it was not.
• Fixed menu option Edit->Copy for export to V8 so that it copies DMA PIDs correctly.

V8.2.1 Build 165 (July 31, 2011)

• Fixed LBZ/LMM V8 full-flash.
• Fixed $0322 error when flashing some controllers.
• Device settings are now automatically read from the connected/active device when opening Device Settings page in V8 EFILive Scan and Tune.
• CAN full-flashing in V8 has been optimized for many controllers.
  Example speed increases: E39 full flash was 3:44 now 2:47, E38 full-flash is 20 seconds faster, T42 full-flash is now under 1 minute.
• Forced HAPI window to be displayed when a firmware update is available - instead of the system tray balloon which was not obvious enough.
• Fixed PID descriptions that were not displaying correctly for some EXT.DYNxxx PIDs

FlashScan/AutoCal Bootblock V2.07.03 (July 25, 2011)

• Security Update.

FlashScan/AutoCal Firmware V2.07.18 (July 31, 2011)

• Fixed BBL not starting sometimes when LBZ/A40 controllers are being logged simultaneously.
• Fixed AutoCal simple-menu read-options which incorrectly displayed existing file names for the last 3 read options.
• Fixed CMB standalone flashing.
• Fixed BBL problem where some PID's values were not being displayed correctly at the start of the log - until their value changed.
• Fixed AutoCal BBL problem which caused the firmware to crash/reset when starting a log or selecting PIDs.
• Fixed AutoCal failing to start BBL.
