this method wont work on the delco system......it was my first attempt.
i have had good results from 1 chip split in half and switched with a
pulldown resistor ......one of the guys from the list told me to set it
up a little different to how i was doing it......and thankyou ...it
seems to be a better way of switching....but still only using 1 eprom 1
switch (spst) and 1 resistor ......also a lot smaller than 2 chips and
in a memcal i can still put the lids back on..
