Default TS and truck dont start

I bought a ts 6 pos from my buddy, cleaned the terminals and installed, truck wouldnt start so i removed the chip and the truck started, so I cleaned more and installed and wouldn't start again, I've done this 6 or 7 times and every time with the chip installed, the wait to start light flickers and the truck won't start, I remove it and it won't. Any ideas? My truck is a 96 with a 5 speed

was it for the same PCM code? did you have the keys out of the ignition when you were pulling the PCM? hopefully you didnt clean to much off the terminals

I took out the keys and unhooked the battery's everytime, me too, hear its a pain to get back to working order if to much is removed

I think the truck is fine cause it starts with out the chip installed, just frustrating

Why would the wait to start light flicker? Is something wrong with my chip? When I take the chip out it lights up normal.

I've come to the conclusion that it has to be the wrong PCM code, I know mine, where do i send my chip to get it re burnt for my truck? What's it cost? How do I go about it ect.

Send it to a tuner, every tuner charges different amounts. I would look into gear head or swamps tuning if it was me
