j1 is right above the chip on the right hand side [if you orient the ecu so that the chip is at the bottom]. the jumper isnt a piece of wire; it is something that resembles a staple.

hth.

do you have a link to the auction?

and are you sure you didnt get a knockoff?
ebay is incredibly flooded with knockoffs

i have mugen, spoon, and skunk2 knock off bins, all of them are knockoffs. Thoes companies wont touch a honda ECU, when they race its all on a standalone system. ditch the chip, all it is, is a rich as hell map, and a move of the vtec
