DTC pin 15 mod

[WildWest]

There is so much talk and confusion of what to do on a DTC STB. I've read lift pin 15 and ground! Lift pin 15 and 56 and then ground. Then there is leave pin 15 in tact and solder a wire to it and then to a ground. I did the last, leave 15 alone, solder .30 gauge to it and then run wire to a ground on the board. Ground I picked was labeled with an anchor. Have'nt had a chance to receive an update. My question is, has anyone just leave pin 15 as is and just run a ground to it? And, did it stop the firm update?

Thanks 4 the reply hwac! I feel better knowing someone else did the mod as mine with success. I can't beleive that I'm more excited to have an updated scheduled now. We'll see tomorrow @ 4am.

are you nuts???????? if you already know when it will happen why would you leave it plugged in ( maybe you like living on the edge)

Yah, I've been told that in the past. Just want to make sure that my hand shaking while soldering paid off. Man, when someone else posted you needed hands of a surgeon to do this mod, was not kidding. My wife asked me if I was nervous doing it with all the shaking. Piss me off she did!
Any way, the update was unsuccessful. You had some great input on achieving this and a big thanks buddy.
