Need some help! I think I fried my ECU. I just got my car back from the body shop last night, so I decided to put my GIAC chip back in. When I plugged it back in to the car it had power and I could access all modules but the Engine mondule with the VAG-COM, and the car turns but does not fire over. I put the stock chip in and the same thing happens. So my question is can I have the place where I bought the GIAC chip re-soder new pins and replace the chip and stock module or do I have to buy a entire new ECU.

Should have used one of those static braclets. Any thoughts anyone.

though mine just died while I was driving. I had the place resolder the joints, and then install a new chip later. they did it all under warranty. Not sure if that's the issue you are having, but perhaps

I have an extra new one...

Did they ever tell you what caused the problem? Where did you get your chip, I bought mine at Shine Racing hope they'll replace it under warranty, driving up there Monday to see if they can fix it.
