Bootmod3 can't clear fuel error

I've just purchased the bm3 license for my 2018 M2. Completely stock with MPE exhaust.

After going through the process as per the instructions with a charger I saw the messages in the agent log window showing success and then last line was
Coding not applied.
Then I noticed that the fuel error code was thrown.
I tried the online recode function but that keeps failing. Saying flash failed.
Then tried disconnecting the battery for a few minutes.
Still seeing the same fuel error both in I drive and in the bm3 diagnostic screen.
Online recode still fails.

Any help would be appreciated.

My flash last night failed as well. I cycled the start button 3 times per instructions (if first attempt fails) and started over reflashing again. The second attempt worked without failure.

Sir you are a genius.
Between trying that three times power cycle and switching from safari to chrome the online recode worked.
Thank you so much.

PTF actually recommends Chrome so that might have been it
