Rafael, All eeproms are programmable, including pre-programmed, unless they are defective or their pwr supply is low. If your "new" eeprom will not hold the data, check the supply voltage. There is a remote possibility that you could have a defective cpu, but I doubt it. You either have a defective eeprom or a voltage problem. Try this, install a socket for the eeprom, then turn the set on, then off(don't unplug), remove the new eeprom and install the old eeprom. Try turning the set back on. It will usually work. You may have to reset the paramaters 1 to 10. Good hunting.
