    The issue is not the drivers nor the software. Something is interfering with the communication. Do you have an aftermarket head unit that communicates or receives info over CAN / OBD

    No need to uninstall anything. I would try these things, and attempt to flash after each step:

    1. Check all connections
      1. USB to computer
      2. USB to Tactrix
      3. Tactrix to OBD
      4. Possibly new USB port on computer
      5. Possibly new USB cable
    2. Update drivers in vF
    3. Install older version of vF

    Edit, I see you have a different headunit. You happen to swap that out after your last tune in November?

    That's the problem. You have to disconnect it.

    Ok, it was not the radio but I did get it to work. After you mentioned the radio, I remembered that I also installed a maestro data link. I disconnected that and that did the trick. PXL_20210327_220437195~2.jpg

    You should be able to disable maestro odb2 communication from the headunit. I’ve gotta do that on my kenwood

    No. There was a recent post by @OVTune that said it will be a while.

    Dang, probably shouldn't have upgraded my TSB before asking for the files.

    Contact Mat's customer service and let him know what TSB you're on, he'll get you the correct ones.

    Gentlemen, someone wants to sell & send me a tune pack that he has already downloaded & paid for.

    Is that something you’re able to do? Genuine question because I know people were illegally tuning awhile back.

    Sweet thanks!

    with that being said, can you tweak one ECU Tune & use it on separate ECU ID’s?
