CALLING DR PANDA & TOMMYGLOVES - STEP INSIDE

- Start date
I'd be down for that. Wed or Thurs evening available? I'll already be in that neck of the woods too.
Thursday would be good. Although I don't think I can be of much help as I have no DHPT. Tommy would be most helpful in your situation. I think using a PT is our best bet because it does not require a file to be licensed. You can try to have a tach2 write a new file to the car, but I think the problem is the physical PCM.
ZZP uses HPT to write their PCMs. Then you used a PT to reset it. Then tried using HPT again. That PCM is probably so confused it is not even funny. A Tech II is the best bet IMO.
people still snatch these for $300+
Thats what I sold mine for. Sent the Keyspan adapter along with it though.
Mr Gloves down for Thursday too? We thinking Lukes, or will I be coming to you guys somewhere in Rolling Ghettos?
so what... my car had the incorrect vin pcm in it fo ev a
i took it to my buddy who worked at the crystal lake- pontiac- and he just flashed it back to stock free.
hptuners will telll you that it needs to be flashed stock.
Whats the difference? A bin file is a bin file. I did a full write over the ZZP 1.0 with the DHP. I have read and write my own PCM file with BOTH a DHP and HPT with no issues.
So you say they both read and write different but cant explain how, or whats different?
(My car was previously tuned with a DHP PT) When I first got my HP Tuner I used the PT to write a stock file unto the car, overwriting my old tune (full write). I did this because I wasn't sure how the HPT licensing works and wanted to license the file that was on the car and not just a file from my computer that I wanted to write to the pcm. I read the stock PCM file (on the car) and licensed it with the HPT. I made some changes to the bin and uploaded the new changed bin to the car with HPT (Partial write). Next I wanted todo a VE tune, but the table modifier does not work with VE tuning for HPT. After a bit of fucking around with it. I scanned with the PT, did a VE tune with the table modifier, then uploaded the changes with the PT (partial write). THEN read the PCM with the HPT. I continued to make changes and tune with the HPT to this day.
So until someone tells me how these tuners read and write differently, and why this is a problem. I will continue to think using both the PT and HPT will not cause the PCM to get confused. Like I said, I have had no issues using both on the same car/pcm file.
Eagle - I need you to look on the bottom of your PCM and give me the Hardware ID/Service ID along with your VIN. I'll try to get you a stock cal matched to your vin. I have spare PCMs here at the house. We can just swap out PCMs once I meet up with you guys.
I believe the stock 99 bin that I gave to Panda might not have a valid serial # (different than VIN and OSID) and that is why it is not working.
I'm going to try and flash a PCM after I post this to see if we need a TechII or not. I can stop by and talk with Justin. He is on my way to work.

And for all the PT haters....it might be old and outdated...but at least I don't have to keep shelling out $$$ to license gm v6's
fixed.
