<h1>Botched "socket" 2</h1> <div class="level1"> <p> This poor guy bought an EPROM ECU from someone, tested it in his car and it worked fine. Then he took the ECU to a local "shop" to have it "socketed" for his DSMLink chip. The shop apparently decided they didn't need no stinking socket and didn't even need to properly remove the stock chip! Did they use a crow bar on that thing!? Unfortunately, we could not offer to repair this ECU. It would have taken more to repair it than it was worth. We did, however, off a free replacement of his DSMLink chip. It was the least we could do. <img src="/wiki/lib/images/smileys/icon_sad.gif" class="icon" alt=":-(" /> </p> <p> <a href="/wiki/lib/exe/fetch.php?tok=17dccb&media=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.ecmtuning.com%2Fimages%2Fforums%2Fecurepair%2Fbadsocket02-top.jpg" class="media" title="http://www.ecmtuning.com/images/forums/ecurepair/badsocket02-top.jpg"><img src="/wiki/lib/exe/fetch.php?tok=17dccb&media=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.ecmtuning.com%2Fimages%2Fforums%2Fecurepair%2Fbadsocket02-top.jpg" class="media" title="www.ecmtuning.com_images_forums_ecurepair_badsocket02-top.jpg" alt="www.ecmtuning.com_images_forums_ecurepair_badsocket02-top.jpg" /></a> <a href="/wiki/lib/exe/fetch.php?tok=b07636&media=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.ecmtuning.com%2Fimages%2Fforums%2Fecurepair%2Fbadsocket02-bottom.jpg" class="media" title="http://www.ecmtuning.com/images/forums/ecurepair/badsocket02-bottom.jpg"><img src="/wiki/lib/exe/fetch.php?tok=b07636&media=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.ecmtuning.com%2Fimages%2Fforums%2Fecurepair%2Fbadsocket02-bottom.jpg" class="media" title="www.ecmtuning.com_images_forums_ecurepair_badsocket02-bottom.jpg" alt="www.ecmtuning.com_images_forums_ecurepair_badsocket02-bottom.jpg" /></a> </p> </div>
