GQ-4X will not write 93c56

[klaudio]

Hi forum,

I'm trying to write a 93c56 with a GQ-X4 and is not working, does someone knows if there is a way write it?

programmer say writing, but when verify it fails.

cheers,

Try to write in 16bit and 8 bit just maybe that could be the problem

tried 8bit 16bit, different eeprom from list, no luck, i google that removing pin 6 to 8 might work, then again, no luck.

open to any suggestions, this is my first time with 93c56 :stung::stung::):)

trying to program a suzuki liana, got the immo 93cl66 programmed, i removed 93c56 on ecu but won't write :mad-new:

you need clean chip pins
and to confirm all pins connected. then it read and write with success .
good luck

try with lower voltage. i use in my programers 2.75v when no want write tham and allweys ok.

Done all that more than once, i even apply solder and remove just to be sure i had clean pins, I will clean my clips just to see if that is the problem.

programmer does not give me option for voltage, can only test, is automatic and is using 5v, see result from test

who is chip manufacturer? choised right one? try firichild than your programmer will use low voltage. will know is there problem??????

[lupu_sandu]

Are you sure that is 93c56 or is 93CS56?

[daniersms]

Ok if you want you can send me the file and I will try with my Willem to write a chip and see if it writes or not

fairchild, that's a whole new game for me, I'm fairly new at this, leave in a small country, no electronic parts supply, lol, everything i need i have to order from new zealand or u.s., i guess i'm stuck for the time being, does anyone know if x431 will match ecu to immo?

thanks, by the way it is 93c56

Smd ic? If yes, no short circuit or bad contact in your adapter?

checked several times, disconnected and reconnected, i don't think that's the issue, I can erase, once erased it verifies, after it won't write, did a blank check no results.

try reload software from mcu mall

I have used Fairchild 93c56 with your dump and it programmed right in no problem

[rokibar]

at the and you have try with another programmer to be sure is problem in your programmer or chip. not need clear content just overwrite.

[m-o-y]

be sure your clip is true one.
example PIN 1 in GQ to IC pin 1 and all other pins.
I used this device for a long time and always done my Job with success.
and some time you need to move speed writing from 2 to 1 or 0 or to other.

Hello ,
Is it was put in reverse way , it read only FF FF FF FF an 00 00 00 00 00 . The real ptoblem is that the 93c56 eeprom is verry sensitive : 1 from 3 are it become defective during lifetime . The GQ-4X programmer is verry good . Other way the Carprog programmer is verry weak . Conclusion : when 93c56 work read good and can't be writen ( with error message during checking after write ) , all you want to do is to replace that !
Best Regards .

Are you sure that is 93c56 or is 93CS56?

any advice on difference between these 93c56 and 93cs56 chip

[disi77]

hi i have here a 93cs56. On the Chip ist write: cs566. I found a ST93cs56 an i can read. But i cant write. kan you tell me how i can write on the EEprom? I use Galep 4 and Carprog

You will need the device menu of 93s56 and not 93c56!
