Question BullyDog CHIP

I bought a 6 pos chip and am trying to install it. I took all the glue and plastic off the comp board contacts w/400 grit sand paper. I then cleaned both surface pins w/mineral spirits. I put the chip in and turn the key-- and my tach doesn't work, check gages light is on, check engine lite on, glo-plug lite stays on. I can start it and it runs at idle. If i try to move, LURCH LURCH. I checked and re-checked the contacts to make sure they were clean. Bad BullyDog? Anybody have a suggestion?

Probably better off asking this in the forum for your appropriate engine than in the super duty thread.
