Remove chip to change tunes?

Just make sure when you install the chip that the cable is OUT OF THE WAY OF MOVING FEET/PEDALS!!!!! We just had a customer roast his PCM when his foot got tangled in the cable and it yanked the chip out while the truck was running. Not good, and not cheap.

Other than that, notching the PCM is easy and allows for instant access.

Take care.

I will second Bills advice about making sure the cable is secured. This happened to me. It takes just a split second for your foot to catch the cable and yank the chip out and in my case when I let the clutch out. You figure the price of the new chip, a new PCM, and a tow back to the shop hurts the wallet but the real pain is having the dually stuck in the middle of a busy intersection. My pride is still bruised and it has been almost a year. Take your time and make sure the cable is secured from the switch to the chip. The PCM you save my be your own!
