Hi.

I am having some trouble flashing one of my 1,8V soic-8 chips. I am new at this, so apologies in advance for any misunderstandings and wrong terms etc. When I am trying to read a chip without the 1,8V adapter, everything works fine. I can read and write without problems, but when I try to attach a 1,8V adapter and try to detect chip I get:
ID(9F): 000000(Unknown)
ID(90): 0000(Unknown)
ID(AB): 00(Unknown)
ID(15): 0000(Unknown)

This happens regardless of whether there is a chip attached or not. Usually, when nothing is connected, I get:
ID(9F): FFFFFF(Unknown)
ID(90): FFFF(Unknown)
ID(AB): FF(Unknown)
ID(15): FFFF(Unknown)

This might be normal, but I can't figure out how to make it read the chip with the 1,8V adapter. I have tried both CH341a programmer and AsProgrammer and I have tried two different adapters. If I choose the chip manually in the settings, I am only able to read 00 00 00.... Could it be the programmer itself that broken, even tho it can read just fine without the adapter?
The chip I am trying to read to and from is a MX25U12873F from Macronix.

Thank you in advance for any help I get!

EDIT:
The "Run" light lights up when I plug in the adapter and when I hold it in a certain angle (with the leaver up). When I put the leaver down, the "Run" light is very dim, but it is still on. This is when the programmer is idle.
