 ====== How to run ECMLink in a 96 DSM ======

-The core piece of ECMLink is a flash module plug-in that goes into place of a stock EPROM chip.  To use ECMLink, your ECU needs to have an [[http://www.dsmlink.com/images/photos/inside1geprom.jpg|EPROM chip inside]] so that we can remove that chip, [[http://www.dsmlink.com/images/forums/ecudocs/withsocket.jpg|install a socket]] and then install our V3 flash module into this socket.
-Unfortunately, there were **no** 1996 DSM ECUs produced from the factory as EPROM ECUs (other than a couple rare engineering samples that slipped out).  So in order to run ECMLink in a 1996 DSM, you have to either replace the ECU with an EPROM 2G ECU (1995 being the only option) or you need to have your 1996 ECU converted from non-EPROM to EPROM.
-If you already have a 1995 EPROM ECU available to you, then that's going to be the cheapest route and, really, won't be any different than running a 1996 ECU.  Everything is the same between a 95 and 96 ECU.

 ===== ECU Details =====
 For the 2G DSMs, there are a few different types of ECUs that are compatible with ECMLink.
   * 95 EPROM ECU (MD312464 or MD309947 with "E" on [[http://www.dsmlink.com/images/photos/eculabel-mid.gif|the case label]])
@@ Line 17: / Line 24: @@
   * 97 non-EPROM ECU (MD326328 or MD335287)
-We do usually have ECUs in stock too, if you can't find one yourself.  We sell them directly off [[http://www.ecmtuning.com/product_info.php?cPath=24&products_id=41|our website]] with new ECMLink package purchases.

If you plan to order your ECMLink package from a reseller, we ask that the reseller work with you to locate an appropriate ECU. They are simply too hard to keep in stock for all the resellers out there.</font>
 The following sections break each of these options down for you with regard to running each in a 1996 DSM.
