 As I said, even the factory flash file looks identical to what is in the
flash proms... it is both flash concatenated into a single file with a
checksum so the DRB can check for file corruption before it applies the
flash.  The flash appears to be strictly data, and no code at all.  I iha=

again a dump wont do you any good. every piece of chyrsler code ive ever
seen has a copyright in asccii test at the bottom of the rom. these do no=
t.
the only clear reasoning is that the adress line are muxed or something
during programming. this is not even remotely beyond the capability of th=

68hc vriants running in these ecms. =0D
