it's how Honda updated the program on the ECU as years progressed...now they just reflash

yea but they put the chip right in the board?they must have some type of device that clips to the chipp legs so they can reburn it.what would happen if u took out that 0hm resistor out?it should still run

i dont think he meant that they re-burned that chip, i think he meant they added that chip when they wanted to update/change something (just like we are doing by chipping ecus to make them run different motors, etc)
