    I figured lol no problem. I thought it was kinda funny because I see a bunch of ungrateful people complaining about waiting, but my whole experience has been amazing, maybe lucky, but I was setup within 30 minutes of purchasing the software and flashing my truck.

    I’ve got an error. I was trying to install a new tune, I got majority of the way through and got an error. I thought no biggie I’ll turn off the truck and try again but now I’m getting this error. And truck will not start. I’ve restarted the computer, made sure I had the right drivers installed but I’m still getting the same error.

    Disconnect the battery, connect the two cables together for 10 minutes. Reconnect, try to flash a stock tune.

    Can you ID your ECU ?

    Try to reset the DTC's ....... then flash again.

    Report results.

    Can you swap USB ports and try that?

    Did you update the Tactrix drivers? See the Help menu on the newer vF versions.

    Tried that as well, no luck

    Sorry!


    @lapoltba and @Shellshock know the procedure better, but there was something about clearing DTCs and trying to flash another tune? Search their recent posts.

    That’s what I did for the vF flash tool. I’d assume the same things are still applicable with the new one but I’m not super familiar with it yet

    Ended up clearing the DTC using the old flash manager and flashing using flash manager. Truck is purring like a kitten again. I’m kinda thinking I got a corrupted file and that caused the original tune to fail.

    Thanks for all the help fellas!

    Also! A new version is about to be released with some updated instructions.

    I want to let you guys know I'm working late every night including weekends as there has been quite the surge in tuning inquiries.
