The Pony programmer does what you need until you get to a certain date of
mfr on the RCA tvs, After that date, only the Chipper Checker can run
diagnostics and make certain adjustments. I understand the Chipper Checker
costs about $125 with all cables and software and you get updates.

wont start because of a corrupted eeprom i install a 8 pin socket at the

the set to come on). and while running pull the new eeprom then (with set
still on ) plug in the original eeprom and retieve the values.
