    When you connect the FlashScan device to the vehicle only, do you see the LEDs on FlashScan cycle up and down? If so then the OBDII port is supplying power correctly. If not, then the OBDII port is not supplying 12V.

    Regards

    Ok, then using the Scan Tool Software, set up the FlashScan device to perform black box logging.

    To do that:

    1. Turn on the vehicle's ignition to the "on" position ("accessories" is not enough).

    2. Connect FlashScan to your PC and to the PCM - by selecting the correct PCM type after you click on the green "Connect to vehicle" toolbar button.

    3. Select the following PIDs:
    SAE.TP
    SAE.MAF
    SAE.ECT
    SAE.RPM
    SAE.SPARKADV
    SAE.IAT
    SAE.MAP
    SAE.VSS

    4. Open the menu option: FlashScan->Program selected PIDs into FlashScan.

    5. Make sure it looks the same as the attached screen shot.

    6. Click on the [PIDs] button to program those PIDs into FlashScan.

    7. Close that window.

    8. Disconnect the SCan Tool software by clicking on the red "Disconnect from vehicle" toolbar button.

    9. Unplug FlashScan from PC and from vehicle.

    10. With the vehicle's ingition still in the "on" position, reconnect FlashScan to the vehicle.

    11. Press the Start/stop data Logging button once:
    - the LOG LED should illuminate.
    - the MEM LED will illuminate after about 3-5 seconds (it will start flashing when 95% of the internal memory is used up).
    - the PGM LED will flash every 2-3 seconds.
    - the OBD LED will flash rapidly.

    12. After about 10 seconds, press the Start/stop data Logging button again to stop logging.

    If the appropriate LEDs did not illuminate then there may be a problem with the V1 device.

    Regards
    Paul

    Based on the log file there appears to be no OBDII communications between the vehicle and the FlashScan V1 device.

    I've sent you an email with a couple of options to get the V1 repaired or changed over.
