Cobb update problem

gearheadred · 09-25-2011, 10:35 PM

Anyone else have this issue when trying to update to the latest firmware? Update seems to go smoothly until the actual flashing to the AP. Then an error occurs and the update ends. Tried multiple times with no luck. AP currently frozen in "Updating" mode.

Go to coBB thread and read. It explains some weirdness with new AP manger. Have to erase all ecu files from AP prior to updating.

If stuck on updating. Have to use shit-f10 or some secret keys to force quit from updating.

Scary but no problem once you find the fix. Good luck

Soon after posting my update issue Stephen from Cobb e-mailed me. I called him the next day and he walked me thru the resolution - it was exactly what everyone had suggested.

Thanks for everyone's help on the forum, and thanks for the quick response from Cobb - great customer service!
