flashpro connects and locks to fn2 , wont upload or unlock
Posted: Sat Jan 21, 2012 4:03 am
- serial number of your FlashPro = FP-SI-INT21407 ,bought fom the greek dealer as always , two days ago
- FlashPro Manager version = 1.1.9.3 AND 1.1.9.6 , tried both , now on 1.1.9.6 ,tried three different laptops
- the calibration = wont upload any cal , either mine or those included by hondata
- a datalog of a problem = its an upload issue , i only have the pics that follow
- what sort of vehicle you have = civic type-r edm fn2
- what sort of ECU you are using = stock that came with the car
- anything about the car which has been modified from stock which may affect the ECU = header and exaust
- a specific description of the problem
flashpro connects to laptop OK ,drivers and flashpro icons are active
flashpro connects to laptop and vehicle ok , all icons active (driver, flashpro , ecu , obd2 )
flashpro connects to hondata for registration and locks to vehicle ok
everything looks normal as everytime ,datalog works ok
BUT
i cant upload any file either to the car or flashpro , even if flashpro is disconnected from the vehicle , it shows an error message
this one
the upload bar appears for half a second , and then the above message appears..
BUT fpmanager states tha LAST UPLOAD WAS SUCCESFUL!!!!!!!!! even if there is no cal loaded in the flashpro ''calibrations'' tab , or the car of course
after trying with three laptops , win xp and win 7, and two software versions 1.1.9.3 and 1.1.9.6 , i felt confident that its was a flashpro problem...
SO , i decide that i cant hassle the customer that lost his appointment , and the dyno..
and i call the dealer so i can get a replacement flashpro , and let him get an rma etc
BUT , now , THE FP will not UNLOCK from the vehicle
since therewas no cal loaded , i press unlock , but it prompts me to return the car to stock (i guess fp thinks an upload was made , or during lock the stock cal is stored in the fp i dont know)
i choose return to stock to load the stock cal back to the car (even if there was no cal actually ever loaded in the car)
the upload bar appears again for half second and dissapears, with no error message , then i press UNLOCK , and it prompts me again to RETURN TO STOCK , THAT of course i cannot do.....
and thats it.. i cannot unlock it whatever i try (laptops , power cycles, restarts etc)
so i am now stuck with a flashpro that is NOT working , and that i have to pay to the dealer , and i cannot even unlock it from the car , to return it back.. and get another
car battery voltage was 14.1-14.3 immidietely after start up and 11.7-11.9 when i tried to upload , have done it with less than 11.7 many times before
car has the stock cal in , and moves , customer left with it... fortunately!!!!
p.s
CAN i use another flashpro to the same vehicle , if the old one in not unlocked??
i mean using a new unlocked flashpro , will OVERWRITE the lock?
Ι guess i can , the fp locks to the ecu , and not the ecu to the fp
so i can tune the car until the matter is resolved
ps2
its definitely a fp problem , since i cant upload with the car disconnected , but how will i unlock it ,when i press unlock it prompts to press return to stock , and return to stock of course doesnt work
ps3
i guess if the customer reported the fp stolen , i would also end up in prison :-)
thank you
