I think one of my flashes may have become corrupt. I took one .ls1 file from a stock C5 and compared it to mine. That did not work, I got crazy numbers. So I went and looked at the opening page in the editor and this is what I saw, notice the difference in that my CHECKSUM is DISABLED.... ??? corrput file and will I have to re-read my pcm??

See the second file looks odd and DOES NOT allow the compare function to work right. I tried the compare function with two other .ls1 files that were not from my car and they were fine.

ALSO!!!!!!
When I tried to program with my file it could not do it. I oculd edit it, but not program. Luckily I had two files and was able to program with the other one...

Soooooo should I re-read and capture my pcm and try again???
Damn file seems corrput or something...hmmm

 

If you typed this in correct then your trying to compare a '99 with a '98 and that I would think that is not valid for 97-98 would be a different code base thewn 99-00

 

yup I cannot compare a '98 to a '99. <img src="graemlins/gr_cheers.gif" border="0" alt="[cheers]" /> Oh well <img src="gr_grin.gif" border="0">
