I bricked my PCM during a calibration write. This can happen when tuning and battery voltage is to low or modules interfere with the write. This is a walk through on how to recover your PCM with pcm hammer and a bench harness.

Good to know for sure! Looks easy enough as well. I recover switches and routers sort of the same way but with buttons on the devices versus grounding ping but same net effect. Is your background in IT?

No IT background. I’m just a mechanic. This is just something I have learned from other places online. I’ve needed to recover a couple PCMs and I’m some cases several times to the same PCM. I haven’t yet had one that couldn’t be recovered with this method.

To what pin in the obd2 port you used the paper clip to ground the PCM? WHat software are you using? Same process can be done with HP tuners?

Pin 4 or 5 in the obd connector are both grounds. I’ve also heard you can just use the case of the pcm to ground it. I haven’t done this procedure with HP Tuners but I heard you can by selecting write entire.

Very new to this world help please

I basically save a base file before I make any changes. Then I save a file every time I make a change. Usually rewriting the previous file works but I have had to rewrite the original file first to get it unlocked then rewrite the previous file. If it’s a stock untouched pcm and you haven’t even been able to get the file read and saved it may be an issue with your OBD tool or a power supply issue. From what I remember you must be a certain point just over 12 volts.
