If you know the general location where the chip may have fallen out, get a strong magnet and pass it over the area. The chip (also known as the 'Pill') is just a transducer coil and so will be attracted to the magnet.

Expect a dealer visit for this to run $90-$150. So, if you expend $89 worth of effort and find it, you're ahead. Good luck.
