OK, now what?

I did the "firmware update and I get: "Upgrade pending" "Before using this device, select the Flashscan V2 Upgrade Option on your PC"

Exactly where is that?

There is a 12 digit number appearing on the V2


I already have the V2 USB installed.

What the hell does this thing want?

Well shit. OK, I found the Flash Scan V2 Upgrade Option.

What the hell do I put in? Too much red text and warnings to screw this up.

Hi Elmer,

Basically it is a simple process. You just need to decide which license slots you need want to copy/move from your V1 to your V2 cable.

You can copy used licenses, I highly recommend selecting this option because then you can tune those licensed vehicles using both cables.

You can move unused licenses. Unused licenses will be flagged as "upgraded" in the V1 cable and cannot be used anymore on the V1 cable. They will be added to the V2 cable as unused VIN licenses.

That's really the only two choices you need to make.

Before you click the Upgrade button, the left side of the screen shows the licenses your V1 will have on it after you perform upgrade, the right side of the screen shows the licenses your V2 will have after you perform the upgrade.

Crikey! I have to find the V1 connector to get the 1 license I used on my son's car. My 98 didn't use any licenses and the new Corvette will use the 2nd one I have available. Oh hell! Where did I put that darn thing. I didn't think I needed it anymore.

We are not doing well in the quest to find that darn V1 thingie. I've got a new vette in the Garage and I can't bitch-slap that darn CAGs! Grrrr.

98 Vette still shouldnt use any licenses IIRC even on v2

But ya got to run the transfer utility before you can use the V2, or you can't do the transfer. Once you close out the transer part, you can't go back to it.

You are correct on the 98 thing, I had not used a license on it. I did tag one license for my son's car when he put my old LS1 into his 83 Camaro and used a 99+ PCM in his car. I'm still looking but I'm feeling older and older as the minutes go by. Shit, what the hell did I do with it? Maybe the cat ate it?

I can send you a code to bypass the upgrade process but by doing that you'll not get any licenses from your V1 transferred to your V2 unit. If you're happy "losing" those V1 licenses, then let me know and I'll send the code.

We might get to that. I'm still looking for the darn thing. Does the V2 come with 1 or 2 licenses? My old V1 only had my son's car on it with one other license spare. I haven't given up yet. Old people have lousy memories. We put stuff in "safe" places so we won't lose it. Right... can't find it but it ain't lost! (Yet!)
