    When FlashScan is in dead poll mode the two orange LEDs will flash alternately. Can you please confirm if you are in this mode, or if there is no lights on at all?

    Out of interest, what version were you upgrading from and what version were you going to?

    Cheers
    Cindy

    Subscribed, and do not want to have this issue. Allout diesel, what firmware/bootblock did you have? I believe I have to update incrementally.

    I was running the same as the link you sent then it said it needed updated so when I was updating my computer shut down now when I plug the v2 in it doesn't respond at all Iv tried every way to get it to update but it will not connect I even tried a computer that has ever had efi on it and it still will not connect I can see where the computer is sending information to the v2 but the v2 is not sending anything back

    Hold down the V2's Ctrl key as you plug it into your PC (via USB port)...

    this boots V2 into dead poll mode (amber LEDs flashing in alternation), you can now program firmware into it (using EFILive Explorer).
