i bought this on this forum and im not sure what the original user used?
crome or something else?
can someone tell me what is used on this ecu?

also is the gray wire supposed to be attached?
if it is what is it supposed to be soldered to?
i got it that way.
the green and white wire is soldered to the board.


also i didnt get a chip, was i supposed to get one?

this is a P06 ecu.

thanks for any help.

 

Looks like a standard socket for an Atmel 256 or any other Eprom you'd use for Crome etc..

 

Helps to search - looks like someone did some rigging on that board... Read this and it should help you see the possibilities.

so this can be used as crome or any other socket version chipset?

 

Correct.

 

that area where the green and white wire are is for dataloging

 

just missing the ZIF socket.

You don't need a ZIF Socket, it just makes it nicer.

 

The ZIF, or zero insertion force, sockets make it easier to remove and instal chips without bending or breaking the contacts. They are not used with the Neptune RTP, Moates Demon or Hondata. The ZIF is more or less just a bonus if you are continuously changing/burning your EPROM chip.

If you are running a Moates Ostrich a ZIF socket can be kind of a PITA. You will have to remove part of the ribbon connector for the locking arm to rotate. I use a low profile socket when using an Ostrich.


As for the loose wire. If I remember correctly, it should be soldered to pin No. 4 of the CN2 circuit.

GRN - WHT - Blank - GRY - BLANK

 

thank you so much for the assist.

but do you guys know where the grey loose wire goes to?

 

 

totally missed that bro.

+1 for the redirection !

so its going to have two blank spots between the resoldered grey wire.
