    Default Can't connect to LB7 ecm

    it will go through it 10 tries to check status and then gives me the status unknown msg. I've disconnected all aftermarket equipment and tried with and without highspeed and Alt keys enabled. I have a good connection and the obdII port appears to be functional.
    Ver 8.1.2 build 115 and 7.5.6 build 113

    Hi MM,

    You should update your V7/V8 software from here: March-05-2011-release-candidate-2

    After updating V8, also update the V2 firmware.

    Here are a couple of knowledgebase articles that relates to software and firmware updates:
    - Software
    - Firmware

    As Joe says get that RC2 release though.

    Cheers,

    Yeah I'll get her updated asap. I haven't got a chance to mess with the truck anymore.
