What are the different types of locks you might encounter. For instance.. if it isn't a seed lock what can it be?

I don't really know, seed/key is the most effective.

i was hoping to hear a response like your last comment in reguards to these pcms. thank you very much for the info man. Greatly appreciated.
Well now I am having the same problem with still no solution. If I can find out the ls2 edit seed key will efilive unlock it? Well I have used ls1 edit a few times and have talked to the guys there before so I just sent them a email to see if they will help us out in any way.

Yes I believe so, although you only need to supply the EFILive unlock software with the key value. The seed value is ignored when locking/unlocking. The seed value is only used when the controller is not locked.Originally Posted by 1meangto

Thanks and here is the answer I got from ken.
Mike,
The current LS2-edit locks by default, But the tuner can check a box
to not lock the file. We are working on a release that will unlock by
default and make the programmer select lock if needed. The default
setting has caused problems were tuners don't realize they are locking.
Any LS2-edit tuner can unlock the E40 ECM.

??, perhaps not worded correctly? 'ANY' LS2Edit tuner?

Yeah that doesn't make a whole lot of sense does it. Well they would not give me the key to unlock it so I'm assuming it cannot be done with efilive. But I did get the ecm unlocked by the original tuner today and yes I can read the tune!!!!

Perhaps the reason Ken did this was not to stop other LS2Edit users from downloading others programs but to stop the ECM's getting programmed by the dealer? If any Edit user can unlock it I can't see it being a complex process.

Yes this is why he said he did that in a later email. But he also said a tech 2 will overwrite the lock so theres no point in the lock.
