So I finally get everything installed on my 95 GSX shell I bought 6 months ago. I went to plug in my brand new ecmlink chip into a socketed eprom I had bought several months back. I was using my budies computer, which he uses for his car all the time. The ecmlink would not connect! I spent several hours trouble shooting and long story short, I swapped his Eprom with mine, and it connected right away!
The only problem is I dont want to tune my car with his ecu and mess his setting all up. So I took an extra V3 lite chip from another friend, unplugged my V3 full chip, and plugged in the lite into my ecu. I connected it to my car and it also worked!
So now I am thinking it HAS to be my ecu that is bad. I go to set up pin assignments, and all of a sudden, it disconnects! nothing I do allows it to reconnect, except unplugging the battery cables, plugging them back up, and turning the key back to the on position. Which when I do this, it keeps disconnecting randomly! I am not able to tune it! IT keeps reading No response received! Ive tried 3 different cables and 2 different computers.
I thought maybe my battery was dying, so I hooked up the jumper cables. Still Same result. I am planning on sending in my chip and ecu to ecmlink to have them tested. Maybe the socket is not making contact? I just want to know if there is anything I am missing. Thanks!
