The ID is not affected by the driver you are using, it is a
hardware thing.
My guess is that there is something wrong with the ID setting
switch on your burner. Open up the case of the burner and check
if the switch is connected like it should. Or disconnect the
switch and set the ID manually : remove one of the jumpers on
the drive mechanism (either the one on the center pair of pins,
giving you ID 1, or the other one, giving you ID 2).
