Correct me if i'm wrong here...but it sounds like you're trying to blame it
on the JET-II. If it wasn't doing it before (and the chip was already
in)...that's not the problem. (The JET chips fail to work if they go bad.)

Check for a possible burnt wire. This seems to the be most common problem
with the Dak's.
