Check my VIN #?

I got the updated version of the autotap software and went to go try it out on my truck. Well it works and its very cool, but it didnt seem to recognize my VIN number. After you enter you VIN number, the button the says Connect using VIN is supposed to become clickable(un-grey?). Anyway, I entered my VIN and the button was still grey. So I tried my sisters car(99 V6 Mustang), entered the VIN, and it worked, the button became clickable. So the only thing I can think of is that im entering a wrong letter or number. Like putting I(the letter) instead of 1(the number). So, here is what I entered, tell me if its right:

2FTZ0(zero)73XI(the letter i)CA5296

again without ():

2FTZ073XICA5296

thanks

All L's have F0(zero)7 in the vin. Maybe your typing it wrong.

Joe, Ford doesn't use the letter O or I in VINs, they are zero and one. Also, as detial said, you are missing a digit, yout VIN should be 2FTZF07......
