    Default Licensed FlashScan Rejected

    G'day,
    I have been researching & admiring this forum for a while now, but am now in a position where I need help. I am in the process of tuning a stroker engine that we fired up last week. A license was purchased for this job. Got the ball rolling by programing the 0411 LS1B PCM using EFILive V8 Scan & Tune. I used a modified to suit this engine Custom Operating System version 03 .cxt tune file 0129003 (have used this tune as a starter tune for a number of engines). This of course required a Full-Flash and went in without a hitch as always. I have since then loaded into this vehicle/PCM a number of calibration only updates Cal-Flash all completed without a problem. To this point all is well, we are making progress. Today we attempted to load Custom Operating System V05. I haven't used Custom OS V05 before, but with the additional TPS VE table it was considered worth a try. We selected Custom OS 0129005, as provided by EFILive - sans calibration, and loaded this into our PCM. Having successfully Full-Flashed 0129005 OS we then attempted to add the calibration. This is where the problems started. We used the original 0129003 Custom OS file to Cal-Flash our PCM but this threw a code $0534 Invalid Serial Number. I tried this a number of times with no success, always getting a $0534 code. I then tried to Full-Flash 0129005 again, thinking something must have gone amiss the first time. No joy. Same error. I then used EFILive Tune V7.5 to Full-Flash 0129005, the rationale being that all the Custom Operating Systems originated in EFILive V7.5 as .tun files. This actually worked, up to a point. Whilst we managed to load Custom Operating System 0129005 successfully it still won't allow a Cal-Flash because it now wants another VIN license! I don't have to buy another license do I? Where to from here?

    Both of you:

    What V7 and V8 software build versions are you using...?

    Are you flashing using V7 or V8...?

    Post a screenshot showing your V2 VIN/PCM licenses...

    Make sure you are using the latest EFILive software, available here:

    Then if the problem still occurs, please locate the appropriate trace files as per the instructions here:

    and email them to support@efilive.com

    Hi Peter,

    Can you please update your software (V7 and V8) along with your firmware to the October 5 release. Link is in my post above.

    Over time our tune file formats have changed, so one you have updated can you please open your tune file and save it in the current software, then attempt the flash.

    Cheers
    Cindy

    Hi Cindy,

    Have updated to the latest release as requested above and have tried both a Full-Flash as well as a Cal-Flash.
    Still no joy - results in the following message:

    Script exited with code $0533: No VIN-license slots available.

    Please advise.

    Sorry, I meant to ask, how did you go with the trace files?

    Hi Peter,

    Which one of those is the serial number of the PCM you're trying to flash...?
