    In ids go to module programming but might not work while bricked. UCDS does not give a damn bricked or not.

    Go through module programming steps in IDS to setup for programming.
    DO NOT TURN ON IGNITION when IDS prompts you to turn key on.
    IDS will prompt "cant ID vehicle" (something to that effect), click NO to rescan, and enter module/vehicle info manually.
    **Flash files and and VIN specific asbuilt file needs to be available**
    Once it is ready to flash, now you can turn the key on and now IDS will recover the module.

    You flashed wrong tune, 08 has job1 and job2 TCM even though the file will flash youll be left with reverse only, read the TCM and see what TCM is used, early 08 is Job1 the SWPN will start with a 7 Job2 and later start with 8
