It's been a while since I've messed around with EFI since I sold my truck. I am trying to edit a transmission tune for one of my friends with a 2001 LB7, with the 5 speed allison. When I read the current tuning file from the TCM with EFI version V8 it saves the file as a .ctz file. I open it and click "Edit with EFI V7.5" but when it opens the file in EFILive Tune V7.5 all information is blank, I cannot edit anything. What am I doing wrong? Do I need to read the TCM file from the truck with V7.5? I got some kind of error message when I tried to do that, I don't remember what it was.

It sounds like something is wrong with your install of EFILive. I would go download the latest copy of both V7.5 and V8 programs from EFI, install them, and try again. It should open right up.

Thank you very much this worked like a charm. I have not flashed the truck yet but can open the TCM file and edit no problem.
