Can anyone give me some type of procedure for flashing the chips with the minipro tl866? I just purchased one after socketing my pcm. I have both of the bootable images needed to flash to the chips, but every time i try i get "ERROR! Address: 0x000100 Buffer data: 0x18 Verify: 0x00"

Make sure your look at post #29 of this thread.

Do a search on you tube and it kind of walks it through it. It works for Ed as you've read and I have same issues as you do. Ed is a great guy maybe he will do for you what he did for me. Send him your chips and the files for each side. And once you get them back I bet you will be able to read them and burn them. And once you pull a copy off save them as your master copy. And they are reusable so DON'T throw them away. You can erase them and make them full usable again. If you need a second set I have a pair if Ed doesn't want to sell a set. That way you can have a back up ready if needed, and them just reload them with master set.

once your done with your tune you can just slip them back in the programmer and keep a recent copy of what you've done.

Thanks bigtoyz, Ed was actually able to solve my problem. I used a spacer in the minipro socket as he suggested and it worked like a charm, no more error messages!

They are posted in this thread. To easy identify which side is which. On eside there is one big chip labelled d84g. On tside there is the knock module. Or connectors color blue/grey tside; red/black eside.
