Make sure the chip is in totally straight. If you taped the chip in, and pulled it to the left or right, it might have made a bad connection. I would check that first. Also, the 30 amp fuse in the lower section of your fuse bix is the one to control power to your PCM.

yes. the WTS light is powered on by that fuse. which also sends power to the PCM through that Circuit.

pull the chip and see if the WTS light comes on without the chip... then try and reinstall the chip..
