Still Freezing Up
Posted: Tue May 02, 2017 12:05 pm
I had to get help from phone support getting my i-1000 to update a month ago as it wouldn't download... that worked and i was able to connect to my 2007.5 silverado w/5.3L. i installed the 87 tune and disabled DOD. right on! now i figure i'd hook up and play with some of the shift settings to firm that up a little... nope. I cannot connect to the truck. the tool is fully updated. i've phoned in a couple time and tried the following as a result of the phone calls.
- disconnect multiple fuses
- turn anything and everything off
- have charger on battery (battery is a month old)
- disconnect (factory) stereo from dash
- disconnect trailer brake controller
- don't have any other aftermarket add-ons at all
the tuner connects to truck, but when prompted for 'key on' it freezes after 5 seconds. i cannot even use the scan tool or anything.
pretty frustrating to not be able to connect to my vehicle in any way since installing the tune.
1) is this common?
2) is there anything else i can try?
3) if i need to basically unplug my whole truck every time i want to connect the tool... i'd like to restore the factory tune and sell this thing... oh wait! i can't connect to even do that!
please help!
