I did the same with mine and had the same issue IIRC - can't remember exactly how it got fixed but there was definitely a scary moment when the old fuel map was gone and the new one wouldn't load. I think I had to try a couple of times - each time deleting the old map and loading the new one, and eventually it worked. My blog - www.anacreinhampshire.blogspot.co.uk

Hi, really this is a post for the BBS forum, Hovever if you email over me your V and F files and ill see ifi can see any errors.
If its failed part flash it may need a bench repair of which ive done many of. Are you using a real serial port, USb or wirelesson your RC ? Pete |

Pete,
Thanks for your reply. I am not familiar with the BBS forum... but I will send you the V and F files, and would appreciated your checking them over. It certainly seemed to fail during the writing of the variant file - around 70% ish through. I originally used the serial port to carry out the flash, but I have had the same results using the usb adaptor. Which would you recomoend? Cheers Mark [:O|===|O:] 2001 110 TD5 Doublecab |

Pete, thanks for the email, I have sent the info...
Having a dim moment - I know the box as Rovacom... it takes me a while to remember who produces it... i do have access to the support forums, so I will have a look there, but I thought it was ECU related, rather than Vehicle server related - although I am less sure of that now! I went with serial port originally, as a) I could and b) it seemed like the simplest route without extra adapters. I get the same lack of responsiveness from the ECU regardless of Serial or USB...
