    Yes you have (had) a soldered in chip. They were in the replacement ECU's but not usually in the original ones.

    It should have been obvious that there was no socket in your unit.

    Did you buy one of my chips? (just wondering)

    Default MARK is that the proper number for his car?

    wait till the last 2 minutes and then bid 41 bux.
    no use biddin now and driving the price up.

    Make sure its the proper unit!

    Looks right to me.
