I just thought I would pass an interesting experience,

I found 2 Rom 102 rev 103's, never been in the stream, pristine.

Using the ol T911 modded loader I opened the 1st one in about 15 seconds. Had it backed up and programmed in about 2 min.

The 2nd one however, would not budge. only rarely could I get a response in Niagra Master, I tried all the current sctipts, nothing worked, The only time I unlugged the loader was went I reset it to try something new. but for the most part it was on all the tme, I worked on it for about 2 days. I have seen a lot of post here with same symtoms. only --------- never and respones.

So I took a break for a day. Came in here just now and used the same settings for the 1st one popped with and it opened in 15 seconds just like the 1st one did!!!

It could be something only on my loader, a chip going south or whatever, but letting it cool down made a 2 day ordeal a 15 second job. The 911 has been batting 1000 on the rev 103-105's and has never looped one out of maybe 20 I have opened with it,, but this was the 1st time I tried to open one after another.

If you even open one and put a 2nd one in right after it, and it acts stubborn, unplug your loader and let it cool completely down.

I did notice the T911 case was rather warm during the 2 days of trying to open it. It sure worked for me.

Good luck with all your glitching!!

Yes the 4058's at 20 ohms or so will cause a lot of stress on a those chips. it is around a 1/4 amp load. that is alot for them.

I also noticed it takes a little longer to glitch my cards when my trimmer
gets hot..

shit mopar I have seen "bad cmd04" response cuz pot got so hot. I actually wired 5 100 ohms resisters in parraell to make 20 ohm load cuz they dissapate heat faster

If am lucky enough have more than one low rev for my 911 I will pop one and chill for about 30 min,

Something so simple.....

Thanks for the replies guys and that's a good idea Crazy
