Almost any computer or electronic repair shop can do it for you. Just look in the yellow pages.

Corey, just send the damn thing to Tom and Dave. I thought you already got DSMlink?

PM steve on here; he might be willing to do it for you. (Not sure if he's doing stuff like that on the side, but I'd trust him with my ECU and a soldering iron. )

Its one of those things that needs to be done on the spot yaknow? Like I drive my car there, take out the ecu on the spot, have them socket the bi***, then put in my tmostg3 in that bi***, put it back in the car, and drive away. I don't want to send it out nowheres.

Whoops, looks like I confused your username with someone elses...I thought you were someone I know around here with a 2g GS-T. Sorry about that.

Like 92awddsm said, any shop that does basic electronics work should be able to help you out, or as I mentioned before, steve on here (he's local to Chicago) might be doing that kind of thing on the side.

Uh, yeah. "steve".

, that would be me, and yes I can socket ECU's.
It's not quite a drive by process unless you like waiting.

BTW, Ed thanks for the kind words.

It looks like I'll have to get some flip down magnifing glasses if I do a lot of these. Finding the last set of opened traces on ITSME4G63's ECU took forever. The darn things were microscopic and I missed them the first 100 passes or so. It wasn't until I got the scope out trying to figure out why the the fuel pump wouldn't come on that I found the problem and then quickly found the cause.
