not sure if this is the wrong section to post this but mods can move it to the right spot..i bought a moates burn2 chip burner and i tried putting a base map to a chip i had in my car that already had a stock map on it and i tried to put a tune on it after putting it into my car with DSM 450's the car started for about 15seconds then died and was idling rough so i shut it off and tried to burn another tune to it but wont start..on the flash and burn program i hit erase chip says erased but when i click on blank check it says its not blank so my question is..could my chip be bad or am i missing somthing when i burn the tune?

 

What chip are you using?

Are you using the correct offsets for the chip if it is a 512kb chip?

 

on those injectors did you use resistors on them that could cause your problem

 

its the 27FS512

 

yes i have a resistor box hooked up

 

Again.. what offsets are you using?

 

what do ya mean?? new to the whole burn to flash stuff

 

i dont think i fried the ecu cause the fuel pump primes..i just think the chip isnt gettin the tune im tryin to burn onto it

 

Exactly. If you are using an SST 27SF512 chip then you are not burning it properly. Which is what I was trying to get at.

Read this...

Basically you need to change the Chip Address -> Start Address to 0080000 and it should be good to go.

 

oh well that makes sense haha..thanks man

 

The moates burn 2 device automatically sets the correct starting address for the 27SF512 chip...

 

well why wont it erase the chip?

 

i keep trying to erase the chip..it says it erased successful but when i check to see if its blank..says chip not blank

 

That is news to me, but then again I have been using the same burner since I purchased this one in 03-04.

I am pretty sure the start address is user definable so a user can put 2 rom files on a 512 chip.

If it set the starting address automatically it would re-write the first bin file when you went to burn the second onto the chip.

Also as far as the blank check goes.. there have been times that the blank check has come up "not blank" after an erase. But if you burn the file onto the chip it takes it just fine.

I honestly never do a blank check anymore.

 

tried a different chip but no luck...i hit erase says erased but when i check for blank says "chip NOT blank"

 

Again.. I would not worry about it saying "chip not blank"

Just hit erase.. the program the chip with the new file using the offsets posted in the link above. Then give the chip a shot in the car.

 

well on that link u posted it says the 27sf512 have to be erased before u can put another tune on it..cant write over it..i tried a different chip and the car would run but ran REALLY rich..lots of smoke but was idling but idling very rough and wouldnt rev good..lots of popping and bubbling like its gettin flooded really bad..

 

I sent you a request on MSN. Maybe I can help you out through there.

 

problem fixed..i was putting the chip in the burner wrong..i thought that when the light came on it meant it was in right not that it was in wrong haha

 

What a simple solution!

It is always the most obvious things when it comes to stuff like this, that gets people.

 

yup lol
