I've tried multiple PICs including 18lf448, 458, 8720 and can't get any to work. I have PIC Basic Pro 2.42 and the new MPLab 6.1.X. Everything compiles, assembles, and programs fine with no errors. I've tried something simple like flashing an led and it does nothing. If I pop in a 16f877 in place, it works fine. Is there something I'm missing?? Any help would be appriciated.
Are you using a bootloader..? If your using a Programmer, is your Low voltage fuse set to no low voltage. Also: Sometimes on some programmers you need to ground the low voltage program pin to get it to program correctly: Make sure your chip is earased correctly before each program including the fuses. Other than that without seeing your code we have no idea what's going on by your above statement.
I'm using a Warp 13 programmer and have read on thier web site to see if I'm doing something wrong. It looks like it should be fine. I'm using the same PIC Basic code for both the 16F877 and the 18LF448.
That about it. Like I said, it works fine on the 16F but not the 18F. I've tried ICSP and programming on the programmer socket. They both say programmed fine and varified. Is the low voltage programming pin different on the 18F series? Because it's not an issue with the 16F chips.

What is your firmware on your Warp13? very important that you have the correct firmware: Better check at :
**broken link removed**
Also the low voltage program pin is different from the 16F877: read the data sheets. 16F877 is RB3 18FL448 is RB5
I have the latest firmware and it tests out with the 16F. I will give your code a try tomorrow. Thanks for the clues... I'll also check the low voltage pin. Wouldn't the firmware update keep the low voltage pin at the appropriate level?
