    The names of the chips are codenames associated to custom chip versions, I'll guess. It's like the naming on Amiga computers (Denise, Gary, Buster, Gayle, Lisa, etc.)...

    Due to the lack of audio, I wanted to summarize as I see it. I assume that the Fichte/Apfel chips contain the configuration information for the particular vehicle. You removed the Fichte chip from the donor board czcams.com/video/ywt3b9ICm2A/video.html and did not use it since it was for a different car. You removed the Apfel chip from the customer's fob czcams.com/video/ywt3b9ICm2A/video.html, fixed the torn pad, and soldered it back to the donor board. Correct?
