That means no code or corrupt code. Needs to be re written to with a burner.
Connect with flash tool do a get bin and see how the data looks.

Can you move it over one more pin to cover that single pin I can see? I'm sure that's the write pin so would suggest the nvram board is not inserted correctly been a while since I messed with vt though

It is mounted correctly. The pin at the end is part of the keyway for a normal memcal and does not have any connection.

Did you get the pcm nvram from the1? Whats on it? Does it suit your computer?

That looks right. It might be best to send the1 a PM since he hasnt dropped in on this thread yet. He may not have seen it or might be away but PM is your best option to get his attention.

I am assuming the car runs fine on the stock memcal.
