HondaS660 ECU Nolonger able to be flashed, FP locked to Ecu.Unable to unlock.

Post by Maltegoteeth »

Issues with hondata FlashPro and HondaS660
Im continuing to have issues with my Flashpro not being able to flash the ECU after the first successful flash
I have previously sent the ecu and FP in for RMA trying to resolve the issue please see information on invoice bellow:

SYSTEM SN# FP SS 390166
RMA#7159
RESOLUTION: ECU not fully returned to stock. Needs to be fully returned to stock with previous tuning solution before using with FP

However, the Ecu was returned to stock Using The HKS flash editor previously, then successfully flashed using the FP, however only once. Now uploads stall part way into flashing and wont progress any further.
I can confirm the fuel maps are different as the HKS tune previously used was running lean, now the car is running rich.
I can purchase a brand new ECU if there is an issue with the current, would you be able to assist in the un-pairing of the flashpro or would there be some other way to fix the issue,Cheers,Tanner.

What happens when you try to return to stock from the online menu?

I get the error "you cannot upload a 'Unknown' calibration to a 's660 2015-2020 CVT Japan' Flashpro.

asking around of Facebook it appears this is happening to many people who try using the FlashPro after they have used the HKS flash editor
( its the most popular turbo kit for the car and HKS tuners outside of japan are rare.)

The problem is that the HKS tuner is not returning the ECU to stock - the boot section is still modified, and subsequenct reflashs will fail because the unlock codes are incorrect. That is what needs to be fixed.
