The most dangerous failure point occurs if the software encounters an unavailable protocol or driver conflict midway through a writing cycle. If communication drops while flashing a chip, the ECU will be left in an incomplete state ("bricked"), meaning the vehicle will not start, and you will have to physically remove the ECU to recover it on a bench tool. 3.
