I'm in a serious bind. I need an EPROM for a stock 1989 Plymouth Colt GT Turbo. Mine has two pins broken off of it. I don't need a whole ecu, just the EPROM.

Anyone point me in the right direction???

try soldering a lead from another component like a capacitor or resistor. I have done it before(never with an ecu, but the process should go like this:
1. put eeprom on in correct direction.
2. cut a lead off a "traditional" led,diode, capacitor or resistor.
3. put lead in missing spot, and cut to size.
4. solder to chip.

This is a temporary fix, because if you remove the chip again, obviously its going to break. but as long as you don't move it, it should work a treat.
