Help! ECU locked?
Had LT headers installed, car is at tuner right now. He's called twice to say he can't get the car to keep any changes. He'll put them in, they appear to take, but than the car will start to run in limp mode. It's almost like the ECU is locked. He was able to turn of the CE, etc, just unable to make any other changes stick. I bought the car new, so I know the ECU program is still stock. Its a '10 SS M6, any one have any ideas?
Thanks Tuner has done 5th gen camaros before without running into this issue |

One of the many good tuners on here will be able to help you just as soon as one of them read your post. Good luck.

After reading the file, pull the battery cable for a few minutes.
What's he using to reflash? Also... are any codes showing up? Last edited by DSteck; 09-24-2010 at 10:20 AM. |

Is it happening as soon as you start the car?
