new flashpro "ecu not detected please enter vin

Post by timbobo »

Hi there,
New Flashpro owner here, purchased through VIT. I have an '08 SI. I'm working with a desktop and shuttling the unit back to the car. After registering the unit online, I plugged it in to the car , turned the ignition to on but did not start, left it on for about 1 minute, brought it back inside and used flashpro manager to try to lock it to the car.

I am receiving the message, "Warning: No ECU detected, please enter the VIN you wish to lock to:"

I'm willing to type in the VIN but not sure if I should go ahead and do so. Does this have anything to do with the fact that I'm doing this via desktop?

Thanks in advance.

Enter the VIN and it will lock to your vehicle. If unsure, drag your desktop closer to your car and do it with the FlashPro plugged into the car.
