    Default E38 Diagnosis

    So I'm pretty new at this and could use some help trying to figure out what I'm doing wrong here. I have an E38 that came with a LY6/6l90e/magnaTcase driveline that I bought several years ago. Project got put on the backburner... I decided it was time to work on this some now and am trying to get my flashscan to read the E38. I built a benchtop harness and confirmed the wiring was correct from the J1 connector to the RJ45 that plugs into the flashscan using a DMM according to the tutorial: http://download.efilive.com/Tutorial...20Tutorial.pdf. The harness I built has a switch to simulate 12V ignition and has 12V where it should be verified with the DMM.

    So far with V7.5 scantool I get "ECM not detected" and with V8 I get "Error $0101: No data received", when I try to read the ECM. Attached screenshots.

    What should I try next or is this thing bricked?

    Thanks,
    Mark
