My dp chip came with real good instructions. Loosen the bolt, i believe 10 mm, holding the wire harness into the computer from inside the engine compartment and disconnect the wire harness. Inside the cab there are two bolt, 7 or 8 mm i believe, securing the plastic housing holding the computer. Once those two bolts are taking out the computer will pull outof the truck. open the metal casing, i believe 4.5 mm, and take the board out. clean the silicone off of the metal tab where the chip plugs in with a scotch brite pad, one comes with the chip. put the board back in the case, plug the chip in. put the plastic housing back in the truck and screw the bolt with the wire harness back in from the engine compartment. run your wire and plug the controler in. One thing jody says to make sure is that the keys are out of the ignition when doing this and to clean the contacts on the computer real good. Good luck and if you call jody he will answer any questions you have.
