Subject:Installation of KOMBI chip
From:Ken Hartz
Date:Sun, 1 Oct 2000 14:09:58 EDT

Hello to the list.  I hope someone out there reading this today was part of
the recent chip upgrade purchase coordinated with Robert Lilley.  I was, and
I have several questions regarding installation.  First, I'm trying to
install the chip in an 89 GL Wolfsberg automatic (mfr date:  2/89).  After
removing the black metal shield from the "computer" housing, I find the
plastic shroud attached to the heat sink is marked "Bosch 0 261 200 065,
DIGIFANT 025 906 022.  I know the replacement chip was an upgrade for the
DIGIFANT 022D, which is what I thought I had.  However, after removing the
plastic covering and loosening the top circuit board to access the chip, I
find my current chip is marked with the numbers 1 267 355 501, and is
noticeable shorter in length, ie number of pins, than the KOMBI chip.  Did I
goof and order the chip when my particular Vanagon can't use it?  Am I
looking at the wrong chip on the board (I don't think so from the diagram)?
Help!!
