Turn the ignition off, and wait ten seconds then restart and it correct itself. I believe its a heat soak issues with the electronics of the xlink. I never had any of the problems until I started using the xlink for a bigger throttle body.
A heat issue would not go away by shutting down the engine for 10 seconds and restarting. What kind of throttle body are you using?
