okay, this is weird... try explaining this... with j1 attached (verified the continuity of the pin after soldering it back together), the car will run with no chip in the ZIF socket, just gives the same effects as running with the uberchip in, solid CEL and dropping 500rpms when revving... WTF?

projekteg

wow, i've never tried that is your burner 'verifying' the burn and saying 'device programmed ok' at the end?

wdwalker

yup, and the hexadecimal values appear to be okay... it almost has to be something with my soldering, maybe i burned the 74whatever IC?

Basically the ECU is taking one column (the last column) of the stock maps and running your car from them when you do this...basically does this as well when you have a solid CEL, even with J1 connected, even with no eprom in the socket

This is what an OBD0 ECU does and I believe its what the OBD1 ECU does as well.

teg, do you think i could mail you my at29c256 chip and have u burn a stock p06 program on it at your own convenience? it'd fit in an envelope, and i'll paypal u $1 to cover postage sending it back. just to find out if it's a burner or uber problem as opposed to a soldering or ecu problem. if it still doesn't work i'll go get a p28 to work on, maybe send it to greg moates to have him chip it.

projekteg

yeah, i don't have pay pal though, so you can just put the money in an envelope with the chip if you want. do you have another to drive with? you can send me your whole ecu/chip if you want and i'll look over it for you if you want. send me a pm

Chris Harris

I find it funny that you ask for free help from one of the resident OBD1 ECU chippers on here and in the same sentence say that if it doesnt work you are going to send a P28 to Moates to be chipped.

If the guy goes and helps you out for free (does you a favor taking up HIS time) and it doesnt work it would be a total loser move to then send your next ECU to his(our) competition.

Gheyness at its best right thur...

projekteg

i was kind of thinking the same thing, but then i thought, maybe he doesn't know that i chip ecu's so i dropped him a little hint that i could fix his ecu or chip a new one for him if he still wanted to send an ecu to craig, then i would tell him to have craig make him a basemap, oh wait, craig doesn't offer that

Chris Harris

Hrm...its too bad people look at price and not all the features & support that you and I offer

But know he knows now, so hopefully I hooked you up

projekteg

hey man, i've sent quite a few people your way, speaking of, check your pm
