EFILive is pleased to announce that our beta program to support the Cummins 6.7L 2010-2012 ECM (CM2200) and the Cummins 6.7L 2013+ (CM2350B) has commenced. Like our support for the LML Duramax, we've had to make some technical adjustments to support these platforms compared to our usual method of platform support.

Re-flashing of both pickup and C&C tunes is working successfully, taking between 7 to 8 minutes on both ECM types, a significant improvement over the factory tool which generally takes about 25 minutes on the 2013+.

Mapping for the 2010-2012 ECM, and the 2013+ ECM has been finalized over a select number of operating systems, and the Anti-Tuning disable patch on the 2010-2012 has been implemented in an identical fashion to the CM2100 2007-2009 6.7L ECM. Scan tool functionality is also being tested.

Due to the ECM's architecture, 2010-2015 Cummins support does not adhere to the typical "EFILive process" for tuning supported vehicles. EFILive generally requires customers to first read and save their ECM file, then edit the calibrations before finally flashing the modified tune back into the vehicle, however it is not possible to read the CM2200 and CM2350 ECMs via the OBDII Port. Customers will need to obtain a base file for editing and flashing purposes, and It is expected that a library of stock tunes will be available prior to public release.

CSP5 for both ECM types is planned, however will not be available for our initial public release. Like CSP5 for existing platforms, the space constraints of each ECM will limit the parameters made available for switchable tuning.

Given the ECM controls both engine and transmission functionality for 68RFE equipped vehicles, transmission support is likely, however at this point of time development for transmission parameters has not commenced.

This confirmation of direction for expanded Cummins support also means that EFILive is now unable to dedicate the required resources for Cummins 2003-2005 SCI development in the foreseeable future. EFILive regretfully advises that after placing this project on hold for more than 12 months we will no longer pursue support for this platform, but will shift our focus to newer controllers. We would like to thank those people who ask regularly about SCI support, and wish them the best in finding a suitable tuning tool for their vehicle.

Beta software for 2010-2015 Cummins support is only available to existing EFILive beta testers. As soon as this software is thoroughly tested, a public pre-release version will be made available to all EFILive customers.

Regards,
The EFILive Development team

So we have to obtain a stock file just like the LML?

How much is it to upgrade my black v2 to a blue one? Is that needed for the Cummins tuning if I buy the software license?

All FlashScan V2 units support CAN based protocols as used on these two ECM's. You will need the Cummins Tuning Option if you don't already have that enabled.

Thank you.

What was the reason for updating to the Blue v2? For the SCI guys, which apparently doesn't matter any more?
 
Lol. Poor 03-04 guys... They've been impatiently waiting for several years now then get kicked in the nuggets.
 
Awesome news EFI team. :clap::woohoo:

I'm sure you know already but the need to fully remove the torque management on the 2012 autos. Currently having to flash a 2010 file disables the TM but we lose cruise control and add a CEL on the dash

Will there be full trans tuning available? That is key for making the switch for the 2010 + auto trucks.

Thank You!!!
 
A lot is still up in the air with 4th gen support. Today was literally day 1 of testing on actual vehicles. There is a lot of development left to do, but the tool does flash both ecm types once they are properly unlocked. Trans tuning for the 68 is on the list, but it may not be available on the first public release. I flashed a modified file into one of our trucks tonight, and it runs as expected.
 
Will there be delete support? Tpms support? Can an autocal be upgraded to cummins software and used?

:thankyou2:

I understand hats off to the EFI team and beta testers. Just so the list is clear maybe not the first release or even the second but in one release I would like to see the following.

1. 12 auto's with the dreaded TM, TC chastity belt delete. :hehe:

2. 68 Tuning, delete the partial TCC apply for full ON lockup control.

3. RPM's. nuff said.

Thanks again for the response!

We updated our hardware in 2009 to account for circuit board re-design and SCI communications protocols. We never offered an upgrade path from a black V2 to a blue V2, nor did be promote that customers should update. Both units were never sold side by side either - it was simply a case of new stock shipped with the board revision. The colour change was purely for customer support reasons.

Infact, I know I talked a number of people out of updating until support was delivered.

Development for the CM2200 and CM2350 is expected to consume most of our resources for the next 12 months given RPM, CSP, EDA and other features scheduled after our first release.

We had 2 choices - tell everyone to hold off, we are not touching it for another 12 months, or please go find something else....we chose the latter option knowing we'd cop some flack, but still believe it's the better option.

Sounds like a nasty repeat of when we first moved into Cummins....I still remember that disabling the PRND display on an Auto when you turned off Torque Reduction was 'the only way it could be done', and after we fixed that was told 'actually that was a software feature'. My skin still crawls just thinking about that. For fun; read the last page of this document which we originally wrote for the 06-07 5.9L http://content.efilive.com/documents/Cummins%20ECM%20Reference%20Notes.pdf

Transmission tuning WON'T be available on our first release, but it's in our plans for the new year.

Not part of the ECM - won't be a feature EFILive will be developing support for anytime soon. (I won't say never, but that's probably what should be said)

Deletes will not be available in the USA unless your laws change. They will be available in regions where they are legal.

All on the list, I'd like to think the TM/TC can be resolved for first release.

Yup, looks like all of the posts that they made about getting back to work on them after such and such was complete was pure Bull....!!!!!!!

Please be patient with me, I'm new to diesel. So I should not buy a use black V2? I should wait and buy the blue one when it's come out, since it has a revised board!

Thanks

All new v2 sold in the last few years are blue. Blue is your only option new. Buy blue
 
Official public release is probably a little ways out but their should be a public update containing the calibrations soon. The hardware beta testers have had the calibrations for quite some time now. We have had the calibrations in the software beta for a few weeks.
