Unhappy OFT Problems

So a few days ago we got my turbo kit installed and running on a base tune from Shiv. Everything was running good until last night as I was leaving a parking lot the car decided to turn itself off while driving. I tried to start it again but the car wouldnt crank. I then tried to read the ECU Fault codes but my OFT said it couldnt communicate with my ECU. I then tried to reflash my tune onto the ECU again the OFT kept telling me to turn key to ON position and press ok but would say that twice and then give me an error. Any ideas? Im not sure why all of a sudden my ECU would freak out.

Do you get any electrics on at all? What happens when you try and crank it over?

What mods do you have installed?

You say in the OP that it won't crank... people always get the terminology wrong, so clarify- it won't crank as in you turn the key and engine won't turn over (no crank, no start), or it turns over but will not start (crank, no start)? Exactly what noises do you hear when you turn the key?
