| - | 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. | ||

So in order to run ECMLink in a 1997 DSM, you have to either replace the ECU with an EPROM 2G ECU (1995 being the only option) or you need to have your 1997 ECU converted from non-EPROM to EPROM. | + | |
