| The core piece of ECMLink is a flash module plug-in that goes into place of a stock EPROM chip. To use ECMLink, your ECU needs to have an [[http://www.dsmlink.com/images/photos/inside1geprom.jpg|EPROM chip inside]] so that we can remove that chip, [[http://www.dsmlink.com/images/forums/ecudocs/withsocket.jpg|install a socket]] and then install our V3 flash module into this socket. | The core piece of ECMLink is a flash module plug-in that goes into place of a stock EPROM chip.

| - | Unfortunately, there were **no** 1997 DSM ECUs produced from the factory as EPROM ECUs (other than a couple rare engineering samples that slipped out). So in order to run ECMLink in a 1997 DSM, you have to have to either replace the ECU with an EPROM 2G ECU (1995 being the only option) or you need to have your 1997 ECU converted from non-EPROM to EPROM. | + | Unfortunately, there were **no** 1997 DSM ECUs produced from the factory as EPROM ECUs (other than a couple rare engineering samples that slipped out).

| If you already have a 1995 EPROM ECU available to you, then that's going to be the cheapest route and, really, won't be any different than running a 1997 ECU once you swap the plug wires around (more on that below). | If you already have a 1995 EPROM ECU available to you, then that's going to be the cheapest route and, really, won't be any different than running a 1997 ECU once you swap the plug wires around (more on that below). | ||
