If writing back stock rom gives same result then try removing a battery cable for a minute in case ecu in weird state. then try stock rom again.

Make sure your key fob is right near the start button and away from any laptop, also dont have oft connected to car and laptop at same time

If all that fails its not looking to good. but maybe shiv has a trick.
OP says he used a map editor that used to be on our website. So I think he used Tuner Pro. And with Tuner Pro, unlike Rom Raider which does it automatically, you need to manually select the correct XDF file. And if you select the wrong one and try to edit LC or FFS, it can potentially edit the wrong portion of the ROM. However, it should be fairly obvious since opening those tables would show really strange values (not 0rpm or 12kph). But we did have one customer last year do just this and he needed to get a new ECU (under warranty fortunately).

This was the reason we removed Tuner Pro download from the FRS downloads selection. Romraider is just the way to go thanks to the likes of td-d and the others on the development team.

Shiv,

I used tuner pro. Any thoughts?

Just saw your post... I guess it's not looking very good, had I known about that issue with tuner pro I would have not used it :/ thank you for the input.
Steve,

The battery was unplugged for quite a while, still nothing. Cannot write the stock ROM back on.

Unfortunately, this is not sounding good.

Do you know what XDF you used to edit the ROM. Also, what ROM did you edit? Your original ROM or one of the OTS tune maps? Also, what is your Calibration ID?

The XDF I used was 2.7. I edited 2.061 for Cal ID 700C. Does that paint a better picture?

That's the problem. You edited a new OTS ROM (based on B01C) using a very old XDF with aa map editor that is no longer support and was only compatible for an earlier ROM version. So there is a chance that, when attempted to modify what you thought to be LC and FFS parameters, you wrote to a critical portion of the ROM that is needed for successful flashing. Not looking good. Shoot me an email (shiv@openflashperformance.com) with your phone number and someone here will try to help over the phone tomorrow.
