    Bricked ECM???

    Hi all.... I did a bonehead move last night in the staging lanes..... in a rush to adjust timing and write the tune before my next run, I loaded the tune with my feet on the clutch and brake pedal. Needless to say, now my car wont start..... no clicks, no fuel pumps, no anything.

    One thing I did notice is that the indicator for the security system blinks when I turn the key to run and try to start the car.

    When I try to connect to the vehicle thru the scanner, I get the message that says it is unable to connect to the vehicle.

    I disconnected the battery, I resynced the the interface, I removed and reinstalled the MPVI2 i the OBD2 port, I restarted the Editor and Scanner - no luck.

    Thoughts? Is it bricked or is the security system disabling the ECM? If it is the Security system how do you override it if you can't connect with the VCM Scanner?

    my only choices are:

    Write Calibration
    SKIM Disable for retrofit
    Do Not Write
