I opened up my computer to inspect it for burns and found at the rear of the computer there is an opening covered by a "do not remove void Ford Warranty" sticker. Behind this are a bunch of slide on pins where the chip is supposed to slide on but I have no chip? Should there be a chip there of some sort?? I have nothing there.. Thanks

You mean the J3 port?

In stock form you don't have anything there. If there's a lot of grease on the terminal, it's probably never seen a chip. If the terminals are clean, someone probably had a chip or tuning interface connected before.
