    Default getting an error trying to read bbl on scan tool

    I did my first BBl and when I try to go back and review it on scantool, i get an error saying that it can only be viewed on 7.5 and newer.

    I went to the help and about and it shows that I am on 7.5.3 (build 36)

    Can I do the update to 7.5.4 since I went through all the trouble of changeing boot block and firmware for the bbl already?

    Or will Ihave to go through the whole process again? I did not see that I had to update to 7.5.4 before doing the bbl update.

    I get a little overwhelmed sometimes with all the computer work involved, i like to tune but this sometimes drives me to drinking

    Chad,

    See post #52: showthread.php?p=72062#post72062

    You have to update your scantool/tunetool desktop shortcuts to point to the scantool/tunetool
    in the new fodler C:\Program Files\EFILive\V7.5 instead of C:\Program Files\EFILive\V7.

    Let me know.

    Cheers,
    Joe
