    so i could not have access to a tune that has been locked

    Yes you got it right.
    You can lock and unlock your own tunes. If you flash a locked tune to a PCM/ECM it can't be read/written by any other software, even by the dealer. You need to unlock it first. Only the HPT interface which locked a PCM can unlock it.
    If you get a ECM locked by someone else, you won't be able to read/write the PCM. If you download a tune file and it's locked you won't be able to open it in the editor.

    The tunerlock is a useful feature but you need to be careful using it.
