    @OVTune I didn't have the dropdown boxes for "options" until Purge-> Install-> Update steps were complete. I think some users may be jumping straight to the drop down menus before following the steps listed in your INSTRUCTIONS.

    the old pcmflash works fine but the new p5flash is all greyed out. I will try with the pcmflash utility and see if that will upload the file successfully.

    Okay so that is why... you are a dongle user trying to use P5Flash which is for dongle-less.

    You use the updated dongle user software from the link in the blog post at the bottom.

    see below


    You're not stuck, you just need to update your dongle softare. from the link.. in the blog post. at the bottom.

    DONGLE VERSION KIT USERS

    NOTE IF YOU ARE A DONGLE USER ( Only old customers, from 2017 that has the physical USB FLASH DRIVE.. NOT THE OBDII CONNECTOR) you need this software update to use our new Flash Manager files:

    Please submit a ticket I'll help you further via zendesk right now. I think you're having trouble with using the wrong flash software for your kit.

    Is the new flash manager 32 bit or 64bit? My windows tablet I'm running it on only supports 32bit windows.
