    According to the error files in the V8 folder, it means "No data received". Cant help you out on how to fix it, but what firmware and boot block are you running?

    When you press Ctrl+Ok, do you see any VPW/CAN indication in the lower right corner of FlashScan's screen?
    If you do then FlashScan is communicating with the vehicle ok.
    If not then FlashScan cannot communicate with the vehicle.

    Try updating to the latest boot block (V2.06.02) and firmware (V2.06.04)

    I can Record, scan, flash, gather DTC's I just can't erase, to erase I have been reflashing to get rid of them. I removed the EGR completly and keep getting 1404 EGR closed, No Mil, no report

    There was a problem that caused DTC reading to fail when reading LBZ/LMM - if your LLY is a late 2006 model with the Bosch controller then the problem will affect your LLY as well.

    Try updating to the latest boot block (V2.06.02) and firmware (V2.06.04).
    You can get the updates by downloading and installing EFILive V8.1.2. Then when you run EFILive Explorer you will be notified that you need to update your boot block and firmware.

    The V8.1.2 download is available here:
