steve99 thank you as always. I will definitely give the cruise control stalk idea a try and report back. Sounds like you've flashed previous years CID? The battery is good and the green key symbol is good. So as you've said, at least I have that going. According to the dealer, they sound confident they can extract the CID and CVN and that the CID is a 2015 BRZ profile but the CVN is unrecognizable according to "techline" As for the check sums, they kept getting all 0's. All said though, as confident as the dealer was, they sure were confident it was a 2015 STi tune, so not sure I can place much faith in their confidence or competence for that matter. I will try and get an OBDII Scanner to see more. I will also look further into the Subaru electrician as well. Thanks Steve!
