Let me ask the obvious... are you sure it's plugged in tightly into the OBD-II port?

To start loading your tune, start with the key in the OFF position and turn it to ON when the XCal tell you to.

umm make shure your car computer is the right one..cause when i had mine done, it didn't work then i found out the guy before me had changed my car from auto to manual...so your computer might not be the correct one for the sct program...might have to have the sct re-programed
