I don't lock pcm as well. But the guy i tuned last would not let me lo. I told him id take it off. ^^^ and idiots sir u need to calm down. The option states u can lock it but on some cars it says could not lock pcm or wutever. 4 yearz here as well sir. With balts............... with ottp it could have been say a bad pcm where it wouldnt let me connect to it. I'm unsure all i know is I couldnt in that pcm.

I am not a tuner, so take this for what its worth. I won't say whose car it was, or where the pcm came from, but the guy dyno tuning it couldn't get into it to tune it. He referred to it as "locked" as well. He tried a few things, including calling HPT, etc. Nothing worked. I believe the tuner said his software was up to date. He mentioned something beta, which like I said, I have no idea what he was talking about. Idk, seems like quite a few people have had this lock issue. Be nice if someone could figure out exactly what is going on.

My PCM thi last weekend ran into this! I bought the car a while ago and never had it tuned and it only says over and over that can't read the vcm or something like that! We tried. For an hour! The tuner sent an email to hot but this sucks if we can't get in I have echeck and need this to be perfect to pass haha let me know if u guys came across a fix I know PCM for less will unlock for 75 bucks but they reset all back to stock. I would really like to see what I'm running
