Any bright ideas please?
Get the message above when I try to flash a car I have done several times before with no issues.
Have even read file again, but it won't even test write back on.
No idea what has changed since I was able to flash the car a few weeks ago.
Don't think it matters, but ecu is 93660005

Hello Russ
Change the flashmethod "evo" to "mitsukernel" in the xml file for that ECU.
When I did the Evo 8 and 8MR xmls they were for an earlier version of ECUflash which used flashmethod of "evo" but this appears to have changed to "mitsukernel"
Cheers,
John

I thought it might be something like that, but how the hell do you change it?
I did try....

open the xml file with notepad, when saving change the file type from .txt to all files and save over the original version.
