Help With Running ECU Flash

I'm a noob at ECU Flash and can't seem to get it going. I just installed the latest version (i think) on my laptop, and I got my tactrix cable. I plan on being able to switch between maps w/this program from my laptop, NOT for tunning or tinkering w/my maps for i'm not skilled in that area yet. My problem is when i open ECU Flash, i plug in my tactrix cable to the usb port, my computer detects Open Port 1.3 (i think), and i then plug the other side into my OBD port and then the white plug, and then......nothing I tried plugging it in w/the car off, and then w/the car on, still nothing. ECU flash doesn't see the ECU, and i can't read from my ECU or do anything w/ECU Flash. Am i doing something wrong? Do i need to reset the ECU 1st? Bad cable?

Turn the key to the "on" postition and then try reading your map. Does it time out or what?


EDIT: Follow these steps and see if you still cant get it to read the ECU:
