I'm very frustrated.... Had this problem since day one. Thought it was the USB cord that was provided and replaced that. It worked finally, now 4 months later I want to do a reflash and it will not stay connected long enough to upload a new map.

Any advice guys???

Have you reached out to support?

More often than not the unit is asleep. If it's a V2 often the USB port is not giving it enough power.

Very easy to tell.

V1.2 - If the LED isn't on.
V2 - If you touch the screen and it doesn't turn on for a split second. Or if it's stuck on the boot screen, etc.

If all else fails, simply unplug it from all power sources and plug it back in to reset.

So I have it logging, is that the same as communicating?

Also it will "Prepare" and the go straight to "Uploading"
I thought it was supposed to prepare,erase ecu, then upload?
I've downloaded the new version btw, thanks!

It will read uploading if you've put the tune into a tuning slot. It will say flashing if you're flashing direct the ECU.
