    No communication with ECU

    After having HP tuners Vcm scanner connected to the computer I noticed I lost comms with the ECU. Now all the warning lights, including gas light etc flash like it?s stuck trying to communicate with the VCM. Have tried everything to reset but still no success in connecting to my ECU. So the car will not even try to turn over. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Sounds like the ECU is bricked. If you get ahold of Dmitry (ecuresearch.ru) he can help you recover it via bench flash with a tactrix cable.

    Which vehicle?
    Which MY (model year)?

    Did you try flashing/writing ECU/PCM/TCM?

    Do you have MPVI with credits?

    While connected, were you only logging or performing any procedure?

    Could you share the base tune (in case you have)?

    I was only scanning no flashing or anything.

    Quick update. I got the ECU figured out and it?s fine. Once it?s in the car I can not connect to it. I can only connect on bench setup.
