First, I would unplug the chip and see if it does it after that. but remember !!!!!TAKE THE KEY OUT WHEN UNPLUGING CHIP!!!!!

do you get a CEL or anyhing?

does it just turn off or chug then die?

Chase is right, take the chip out and try to duplicate it. Check the codes.

i used to have an old i think it was a tts (or something like that) flip switch and it did the samething. i gave it to my friend when i got my ts and he got it reburned worked for him then. but i would think it was the chip because mine did the same thing i would send in your ts to tony wildman and get it reburned with custom tunes for 150 bucks

make sure you chip is secured in there... mine was doing the same thing and it was always because my chip was not fully seated.

I was told the same thing by the guy i got my chip from if it starts acting up pull it out and put a little electrical grease on the chip and put it back in then it should be fine
