I made 34 tune changes and flashes over the last year to my truck. Only the last one failed and bricked my ECM. The last one I made after updating to VCM Editor 4.8.7. I didn't think anything of it...
Maybe the issue is Cummins specific?
Wow, this is bad. I had been meaning to respond, but my weekend was busy. I hope these people are opening tickets with support. Support never gave me a root cause. I will not be flashing my PCM...
Thanks Jim, I sent it over.
That's what I was thinking too. If it did use difference memory locations it will be difficult to tune. You would have to remap all the parameters depending on what hardware was used. The OS needs...
Support got back to me on my user defined parameters not working. They stated it could be due to a difference OS on the new PCM (I verified the old and the new one have the same OS), or the new PCM...
The sun even shines on a dog's behind occasionally. Truck is running again and drivable. It is running my old H&S crappy tunes. Except now I am getting a check engine light for the immobilizer...
Same here. My old ECM I sent to them and they couldn't bench flash it. $1300 later I have a replacement ECM and it's going to cost me $200 to get my original gone through to see what happened. I...
I am in 100% agreement there. I guess I learned the hard way. This ordeal has cost me lots of time and money. It just seems really odd that everything was fine until I went to the latest release...
I have my old H&S still. I can at least get my truck running so I can move it and buy me a little time until I can get something else. I also waiting to hear back from EFI Live sales on when the v3...
What do you think the probability is of something going bad if I tried to flash my old tune on my new PCM?...asking for a friend :D
This is my luck...lol:

Hi,
The V2 units are actually no longer available, but there are V3 units we can have sent if that is acceptable.
This will not be shipped out until Monday...
Well, I am now a proud owner of a EFI Live FlashScan v2. I guess I will have to wait until it shows up to read my stock PCM before making changes. I should be able to convert most of my tuning from...
Will I need to buy a different license for the 6.7 or will the 5.9 license work?
Thanks again
I am having trouble finding a FlashScan v2 anywhere. Not even on eBay.
Right now I don't seem to have much choice. If I wanted to go the EFI Live route, I will need to wait until it is available in the V3. That leaves me with Warp, which looks like I might have better...
Looks like with the Warp tuning I would need to get an RaceMe Utra and the Warp tuning dongle? Can EFI Live write bin files stock and custom?
Thanks for your advice
At this point I am open to using EFI Live. Tuning is not available yet with the FlashScan V3. According to their site, it was supposed to be available in a few weeks posted on Dec 10th. I suppose I...
I was just theorizing on the license since it has a difference serial number and thought maybe they restrict parameters until you license it. I sent my stuff off to support. I will see what they...
Thanks, I will open another ticket. I wonder if that is what bricked my last PCM? They don't show greyed out with my old tune. Just when I try to apply to the new one.
So finally got my replacement PCM yesterday. I was able to connect to it and read the stock tuning from it. I created a template from my last tune to transfer over the parameters. That got me like...
I can't make this stuff up. It literally has gone around my state. Maybe next they can hit Council Bluffs or Sioux City.
Tracking History

Arrived at USPS Regional...
They must like you better. I wasn't given the option. :D
Still waiting for PCM to show up. They shipped it via USPS (why anyone would ship anything worth more that $5 with USPS is beyond me). So far tracking shows it has been to almost all the major POs...
