SES with Memcal problem? Are you reading a code 51? or are you seeing a flickering SES when on. Both symptoms are bad and no amount of tuning will make a difference. Take your question to the DIY Prom board, if you want better help. Sounds like you either aren't burning the chip correctly or you have a bad ECU (since your custom chip is the exact same problem).

might be as simple as putting the eprom in backwords. the notch on the chip should face the out side edge of the memcal
