Please help

Post by bulla823 »

I have a 2017 Honda Civic hatchback EX, yesterday I uploaded a 6psi to flashpro, then plug it to my car, after programming, all the warning lights stays on, and my car won’t start, so I went back to upload a stock ECU to flash pro, then plug it to the car, reprogram it, the car still wont start, and my dash light wont even come on now. Please help me fix this...

Sounds like your battery is dead.

Hook it up to a charger or have another car jump it while flashing

Also all the warning lights coming on while flashing is normal. Once it's done flash and you turn off the car and back on. It should all go back to normal if the flash was successful

It will do this if you don't key off at the end of programming, or interrupt it during programming. Unplug the FlashPro, disconnect the battery, then reconnect the battery. Plug in the FlashPro and try to program again. If the battery is low then use a charger while programming.

I would just reflash it with one of the tunes. MAke sure your battery is healthy this time or hook it up to a charger. You might want to get your battery checked out and maybe warranty it if it's bad.

Sorry, I should have mentioned that if you disconnect the battery you will get the 'drive carefully' message. This just means that the TPMS has been reset and you need to drive a short distance to calibrate it.

If you check engine light is on then use FlashProManager to read the code out.

I plug it in and use the hondata app on my phone to check it out, but it was blank, nothing is showing. The engine light is gone now, I turn off the engine for 30mins, turn it back on and it was gone. Thank you guys for your help!

Glad it is sorted out. If you get a check engine light in the future then use FlashProManager to read the code.
