also I'm intrested in how you have done the removable chip on the pcm with the pad so close to each other have u got any better piks to share ?

yer I worked myn out. I wasn't getting a proper read from original chip and wen I did I byte swapped when I shouldn't and didn't when I was ment to.. pretty much just read the chip byte swap it and...

howed you go with the flash chip did you get it to work as I'm having pre much the same issue as your having tried few different bins and byte swapped both ways and still no go.
