RSTuner crashed while uploading new rst!

[Daz.]

the program crashed and obviously the car won't start now - ecu is reading 000000 and won't let me attempt to re-install a map.

what the hell do I do now?!

What message are you getting when you try Writting an RST.?

Normally when this happens or you load the wrong RST/CAL the ECU will need to be re-flashed/replaced

[Jamesstone]

Crap that don't sound good!
I was dreading something like that happening when I did mine

 

[Daz.]

Oh my god I'm so relieved, just installed the old backup and it started first time.

 

[Chrisjk]

Time for round 2 lol?

 

[DanFreemanPhoto]

Good to hear!

A good example of why you should always back up too!

 

[Riley!]

crikey that must of been heart stopping. Glad it sorted fella, try again???

 

[Daz.]

I'm a little concerned about the battery actually I think i'm going to put a new one on first before I do any more messing.

the backup was 6400_2A07 so its still running an updated cal just not the newest one I was trying to put on!

Has to be the best feeling in the world when near certain death is averted....hehe.

I put my car battery on charge, and my laptop was plugged into the mains just incase You will love it once done

 

[Daz.]

Well I've done it a few times now but it just decided not to play ball today! not driven the car since Thursday so I still think my batterys not holding its charge too well.

 

[Has]

That would be very very scary!

I did mine a few days ago, updated ECU Software and a new .cal file.

Made sure car had been started and battery was okay, laptop was working well and plugged in at mains just in case!


Altho im still waiting for my cruise control to come back to life...
