I went to reflash my ecu and it got to the end and finished but the fans kept going,
shut the computer down and shut the car down. And now it wont start it trys.
When to flash it back and it comes up check error log

Iam lost and up **** creek with no paddle

 

Three possibilities...

1) Exit Programming State.

1a) Load the last known good ROM into EcuFlash.
1b) Once it has a file, it'll show an "Exit Programming State" option under ECU. Run it.
1c) Pray.
1d) IF (and it's a big if) it successfully does stuff, flash the last known good ROM.


2) Bench Flash.
2a) Find the "how to bench flash your busted-a** ECU" thread(s) on EvoM or evoxforums.com
2b) Buy/find a REGULATED 12V bench power supply, soldering iron, wires, pins, etc.
2c) Build loom. Pull out ECU. Bench. Follow "Alternate Flash" instructions w/ EcuFlash.
2d) Pray.
2e) If your loom is connected right, it should work.


3) Get someone else to do it.
3a) Pull out ECU
3b) Take it to someone with bench flash stuff.
3c) Pay.


I've had success with both 1) and 2).
