Just installed TW now some issues

[jetskier2313]

Ok I just installed my TW 6 pos chip and I am having some issues. But let me say I love the chip.

Issues

1) Theft light flashes fast for a minute or two and then eventually stops. I can still start the truck and it will still flash while running.

2) Seems to shift harder/sooner either going from 3rd - 4th or 4th - OD.

3) This only happened once so far in past few days. I was driving through town at night in the rain when all of the sudden the truck dies completely!! All lights go out and everything. I stopped turned the key back and tried to start it and it started right up. The wierd thing is that everything reset as if I disconnected the batteries. I had to reprogram my radio!

If anyone has any advice that would be great. I just hope my truck does die again in the middle of the interstate!!

Thanks

Did you clean the brass fingers good enough? Most people are scared they will mess them up and dont clean them enough. Or possiblely cleaned them too much?

I scrolled down 2 threads and found this:

After 2 days of not getting the power I had expected, I traced my problem back to the Big Hoss module. I pulled it out, cleaned it with the Scotch-Brite pad I still had from the Banks box, & gave it a decent once-over. When I put the module back in, it was a day-&-night difference!

Although it isnt banks the process is still the same

Make sure when you clean them, that you just take the resin off. Dont go far enough to take the silver off the connections. If you see copper, you've gone too far,

I feel like i cleaned them enough! Is there any way to make the connection tighter?
Thanks

I hope i didn't over clean it! Now i'm worried. Any I can do if I over cleaned it? I would think if its a bad connection it wouldn't run at all.

man thats wierd. my works fine. i need to do some tinkering with the tunes with tony but other than that no funny stuff like that. make sure your contacts are clean clean!!

[jetskier2313]

does anyone have a picture of what their contacts look like? Also If I put a small amount of soder on each contact do you think that would help?
