You'll need to use the ecutek software to flash a ecutek "stock" file to your ECU to restore original factory security algorithms.
Thats what I normally have to o but since I can't flash it at all that leaves me well... stuck.

But a huge thanks to Mike, it looks like he may be able to help me out!!
