You need the ose plugin in your tunerpro plugin folder then you need to select the plugin in tunerpro and select the com port your ecu is on

If the fans come on straight away that means corrupted NVRAM.
I'm the director of VSH (Vlad's Spec Holden), because HSV were doing it ass about.

I would say it hasn't been programed correctly or its corrupt again. If it was indeed programed and verified good then it might be the internal battery that's dying/dead and losing the data.

Houston...
The chip blanked OK.
Written with zero offset.
Ended @ 7FFF. Everything looked good.
Without being able to do an 'in car' test, that's the only way to verify.
I'll post a shot later when I get to my desktop.

QUIPT4IT noticed the chip was sitting off center in the socket when I sent it. Any chance this chips position is wrong for what the TunerPro requires compared to the Kalmaker?

Was it known to be working recently at any stage? I just noticed the nvram chip is a 0643 meaning the 43rd week of 2006 manufacture date. They have a non-replaceable battery and an advertised life of 10 years. That one is ~15 years. It probably didnt have enough power to hold the tune and lost it as soon as it left the programmer :(
For the kalmaker serial interface the echo option should be cleared. for all pcmhacking gear echo should be set.
