I tried downloading my program to a picaxe 14m. Now all pins show 4.5v, no matter what program I load. I did a firmware check and it says it loads a new program, but nothing changes. How do you tell if the chip has gone bad? The error probably lies somewhere between the seat and the keyboard, I know...just need to know which error.

Merry Christmas and a Happy & Prosperous New Year!
