I have a chip I bought a while back and I am having a problem with either it or the SBECs. First one would turn on initially and stay on, but not always. I picked up another SBEC and socketed it, possibly damaging something and it would no longer even do the initial power up cycle. I now have one I had someone else socket for me. It will do the initial power on cycle, but will not "trigger" from the distributor HEPs. I can hook up a TBI SBEC and it will power up and trigger from the distributor reference HEP just fine. Unfortunately, I was not able to test the current SBEC before it was socketed as the car was in the body shop having the floor replaced.

What is needed to (a) read the SBEC chips and (b) burn a calibration into one? Thanks!
