You need to update your flashscan, mine did that too.

you have to update the firmware on your flashscan. the very same thing happened to me took 10min to download stock file and got error message afterwards. I updated the firmware and it only took like 2 min to download the stock file and everything worked great

From the efi live website This new software requires firmware: V2.04.47 or later. Please make sure you upgrade the firmware in your FlashScan V2 device.
The FlashScan Firmware Programmer can be found on the Windows Start menu: Start->All Programs->EFILive V7->Update FlashScan V2 Firmware.
The FlashScan firmware image is installed here: \Program Files\EFILive\V7\FSProg_V2_4_47.ffw.
install like this
the V2 device needs to be put into update mode, which is done by:
1) Unplug the RJ45 (OBDII) connection and the USB connector from the V2 interface.
2) With the USB cable connected to your laptop, hold down the CTRL key on the V2 interface while you plug in the USB cable to the V2 interface. You should notice that some of the LEDs on the V2 now toggle side to side.
3) Now open the Firmware Utility
4) In the 'Update FlashScan V2:' section of the program click on the '...' button to locate the firmware file
5) Once you have located the file (above step) click on the 'Program' button. Sometimes the numbers do not go all the way - this is not a problem, it still continues in the background.
6) The FlashScan device will reboot on completion and the update is complete.
