It sounds like you did not insert the card fully. On the original FlexWAN 
you can get into the situation that if the bus gets stalled for 60 seconds 
the system will crash. The enhanced flexwan had revisions made to prevent 
this from happening, You can leave this not inserted all the way in and it 
does not effect the rest of the cards on the bus.
