from what I understand, the only Contours that are really worthy of the chip...are the automatics. Not only will it raise take out the speed limiter...but changes the shift points to a more agressive setting.
You may want to look in the FAQ's...i though at one point somebody wrote up instructions on what needed jumpered in the box...you may be able to do it yourself.

IMO the chip is worth it on an ATX Contour.
I find it odd that your car won't start though. When I got my Superchip the first time, the car ran like it was running on one spark plug, but it started. At that point I sent my computer to Superchips so that they could pull the correct code from it. They sent it back to me with the reprogrammed chip the same day they received it from me, and I got it the next morning. I would try a little more with the cleaning and making sure the chip is in the computer tight. But sending the computer and the chip to Superchip is no big deal. If you can find time to be without your car for about two days.

FYI late '99 and '00 SVT's have to have their computer sent to superchip and have an jumper installed as well as the chip. The comuter module is different all together. I'm not sure if its the same for the other models but that would explain why your car won't start.

I'm going to send my computer on monday and probably I'll get it back on wednesday.I spoke with All from superchips and what he told me was later model of contours need to have two jumper in order to communicate with superchip.They said it's normal car was not start.They guarantied that when they do the jumper it would be no problem.What I understand is this cars has Ignation cut off,and only way to start it it's your coded keys.My guess is when you install the superchip you can not access the code.thats probably they are jumping those pads to get it around.Its only my guess but when I try to turn it on with the chip I got nothing like your battery completely drained.thats got to be ignation cut safety future.anyway I'll keep you guys posted when I get the computer back.later.

Yes, the chip works, but it depends on the code of your computer. Some are positive gains and some negative. Check my sig's for dyno's
