I recently bought the autoprom and been tryin to play around w/ it. I can not figure this stuff out. i have been reading for months. anyways i loaded up tuner pro and tried to datalog and it wouldnt work. so then i tried to emulate and when i tried to save the bin file to the computer the ECM was smoking. the car is a 92 caprice. since i need a new ecm now can i just use a tbi truck ecm? the caprice ecm is hard to find and the defination files r rare/ which i cant get to work.

On Nice.. www.tbichips.com you can get a ECM through them and get a Modified chip with it. I think your better off getting a Chip from this guy rather burning up another ECM.

I'm not gonna give up that easy. I went ahead and ordered a new ECM through the dealer. only 90 bucks but wont be here till tuesday.

Make sure the cable from the autoprom to the ECM is plugged in correctly. If inserted backwards bad things can happen.

Alright. I got my new ecm and it works. i figured out how to read and burn chips. I cant seem to data log though. i have 3 differnt datastream files for TunerPro and none of them work. TunerPro reconizes the autoprom connected in autoprom mode and for logging but when i click connected the dash does nothing. I tried using Winaldl and that failed also. I checked my aldl connection on the car w/ a old code/data reader and it works. Im running windows XP. Is there a file that i need for that operating system?

it sounds like the switches on the back of the AutoProm may be set wrong.
i have mine set to, the vertical switch in the middle postion, the horizontal switch toward the ALDL cable port.

I have already read that. I have the newer version of the Autoprom. I tried the inside switch in both directions with the outside switch out.

With WinALDL, you can set the baud rate within WinALDL to 4800 and it should work.
