problem with PCM

Ive been doing my own tuning. I went and hooked my car up on the machine at the shop and its unable to read anything. You are unable to read any word on there. I was wondering if its possible if it could of contacted a virus. or it is corupted. Any help would be great. Can I just reflash it and start over. And will it read then.

No, fortunately these computers aren't prone to virus infections.
Does your engine run/start with it? Has it been programmed by Ed Wright in the past perhaps?

it will run with it. I ran a 11.16 the other week at Rockingham. and a 7.15 in the 1/8. But for some reason I cant use the snap on scanner with it. And Superchips and myself are the only ones that has ever progrmaed it.
