DeltaChip Installation Instructions
Tools you need
10mm socket
5.5mm socket 7mm socket 1/4” drill bit Supplied cleaning pads
STEP 1
After removing the ECU from the vehicle, remove the 6 screws holding the cover in place using a 5.5mm socket (most cases). Remove the top and bottom cover, exposing the circuit board.
STEP 2
MOST IMPORTANT STEP, PLEASE FOLLOW DIRECTIONS CAREFULLY!
EEC-V With both sides of the J-3 port connector surface
exposed, carefully scrub the lm off the connectors using the supplied scotchbrite pad. Visually inspect the surface for any residue on the contacts, one good tip is to look at the connector with a light shining on it, any spot that does not reect the light has residue on it. Wipe the connectors with the alcohol pad to remove any dirt after using the
scotchbrite pad.
Precautionary notes:
1 DeltaChip requires the use of Premium Gasoline!
2 WARNING: with the ignition off and keys in your pocket, disconnect the ECU from the vehicle’s wiring harness using a 10mm socket. Failure to do so could result in serious damage to the ECU.
J-3 port connector
3 Caution: Never remove or insert chip with the ECU connected to the wiring harness!
STEP 1
EEC-IV With both sides of the J-3 port connector surface
exposed use a clean rag to remove the excess of the grease covering the connectors. Carefully scrub the con­nectors using the supplied scotchbrite pad. Visually inspect the surface for any residue on the contacts, one good tip is to look at the connector with a light shining on it, any spot that does not reect the light has residue on it. Wipe the connectors with the alcohol pad to remove any dirt after using the scotchbrite pad. Once visually inspected, reassem­ble the ECU. DO NOT USE EXCESSIVE FORCE WHEN
SCRUBBING THE CONNECTION! THIS WILL MAKE THE CONNECTION TOO THIN, THUS CAUSING THE CHIP MODULE TO HAVE POOR CONNECTION.
STEP 3
With ECU assembled, insert the chip onto the connector and make sure the t is tight.
Some ECU’s require modication of the chip in order to clear some components inside the ECU. Using a good side-cutter, cut the section above the oblong hole, make sure to make the cut above the end of the circuit board. See picture for exact location to cut.
The same board requires you to bend a
ONLY IF NECESSARY
component to the side for clearance, please be very gentle when doing so.

TROUBLESHOOTING - Vehicle will not start:
Gasoline
Check to see if the theft light is blinking while trying to start the vehicle. If it is, the connection is bad, inspect the connector for residue.
Diesel
Check to see if the “wait to start light” comes on while trying to start the vehicle. If it does not come on the connection is bad, inspect the connec­tor for residue.
All
Always check the cleaning of the J-3 port connectors. ECU could have been reashed, please check with dealer. Your ECU might require a jumper (1998-2000) very rare, contact dealer.
Faulty chip, contact dealer.
