To have only written the first byte or perhaps some random bytes. EveryĪttempt at a write fails on verify and similar to the OP - a read appears I'm using a PICkit 3 clone randomly chosen from the dozens on the Bay.ĭownloaded the 3.01 programming software from the Microchip archive. I have never used anything PIC before but I'm a 40 year plus software guy I just completed my tuner build and wanted to update to the 3.2 firmware. PICKit 4 is $70 direct from Microchip so maybe that is the way to go. "Geniune" PICkit 3's go for ridiculous prices on the Bay. Don't know if there is a knock off programmer vendor that is more reliable or if there is another approach I could try. I'm probably going to lead a Maker's group build of this tuner so I'd need to be able to reliably work on it. That said, after multiple attempts at writes I popped the display back on and the doggone thing booted up in the 3.2 firmware and as far as I can tell it works flawlessly.
