Default If it's a complete ECU swap then chances are the EPROM chip is not properly seated on the riser.
IF you did the job yourself, check your soldering and connections. If it was a full ECU purchase, contact the retailer and have a new chip sent.

check and make sure the two ECU cables are firmly plugged in and clip secured

Default More info.....
The Chip is an X chip...freshly "upgraded" from a vendor.

I put the stock chip back in (Same ECU here) and everything works like a champ...so no issues with the two ecu cables, or the riser.

Bad Chip????
