    Sounds like a project. I have a few old eproms that need checked out. thanksa lot. What is the normal erase time? 15-20min.

    It seems to vary as I've left them in there for 15-20min and they would blank check or not! Sometimes when they blank check alright, they don't burn correctly so I cook them longer. It's kinda annoying!!!

    On second thought, stuck the 2732A into a OE PROM carrier and put it into one of my '747 ECM. You can borrow for comparison with your '747 if yours continues to not run right. BTW that AKDX.bin didn't seem to have EGR disabled.

    OK, guess I need to learn more about what needs to be done to modify the bin...lol. I did re-solder the few pins of the ZIF that looked suspect. Once I re-burn the 28-pin with the AKDX bin, I'll install it into my modified 7747 and put the ECM into the truck. If the motor doesn't run better, I'll take you up on the offer to borrow your 7747.

    I also downloaded WINALDL and installed it onto my Surface Pro 4. I was able to connect to the ALDL using my AutoProm setup and it appeared to be capturing data. However, there was a flashing RED box to the right of the CONFIGURATION tab. Also, whenever I tried to place "checks" under the FLAG DATA and other tabs, the "checks" disappeared. So, something is amiss...don't know if my setup was working correctly. I will keep fiddling with it as well as do some reading.

    To turn EGR off, Open up TunerPro RT and scroll all the way to the bottom to "Patches." All you gotta do is apply the EGR patch. Once that's done, I will save as renaming it to xxxxsansEGR. Yeah, that was an incredibly fast lightning round when I showed you how to change that one VE cell that was reading rich. You shouldn't need to use WinALDL since you have TunerPro RT. Just download the right ADX file and you can use it like a scanner.

    Huh, didn't realize or think of using it that way. So, just load only the ADX. The one I have is $42-1227747-V5.2.adx. I'll give it a try tomorrow.

    Don’t quote me but I think you need the xdf file too.

    So being I can't leave things alone, I took the 2732A back out, put it in the eraser for 30m, blank check good, deleted EGR in AKDX.bin burn and fail!!! Erased for 30m again, blank check good, burned and success!!! Soooo...even with this new 2732A, erasing with UV light routine continues to be problematic...
