RE: no flash chip

[mr.prick]

Have any of you guys without the flash chip had the RR
get into a non responding state where a hard reset would need to be performed?

Do you know of a way to reset the RR without removing the internal battery?

[Highlander]

There are instructions on how to do so...

In short.. I believe it is:

Switch the button for flash/emulation
and perform a full write....

key off

and done...

it's more complex than that but whenever i get into a non responding state i do that and it works.

[mr.prick]

It can't toggle between flash and emulation because
this particular one does not have the flash chip.

I pulled the internal battery and "woke it up" but
I wonder if the ol' pull the PCM fuse with key on/key off trick would work.
