computer turned off while loading tune

i had just began loading a tune and my battery went out, normally i keep a close eye on it as i know you should NEVER let it run out while loading. this time i was slacking and now when i try to load the tune it says that it cant communicate with the pcm. what do i do now? do i have to get a whole different pcm, or can i just take this one to the dealer and have it flashed? (and if so can i bring just the computer and have it done or to they hook up to the aldl connector?) i tried unhooking the battery for 20min and that didnt help any...

Your PCM is toast. You'll have to send it to madwolf or pcmforless if you want it fixed.

Agreed. Call Madwolf and figure something out with him.
