Before you completely freak out, put the battery on charge for a while, then retry to flash the computer. I tuned a SS Silverado once that was so voltage sensitive that I had to unhook power to the stereo for it to take a flash. The Eclipse head unit, even when turned off, would do something, then the flash would fail.
