Today trying to sort out my Quad lights I connected the green and black connectors under the dash. Thanks Steve for finding them and showing me the test cycle..

But now the engine check light flashes!!!????

Car goes very well and turbo spools up fine and flys along but dont know why the light is flashing.. HELP please....

Um, that means the ECU has reseted mate and whatever codes you were looking for is lost forever. What you should've done is connect the black plugs.

 

Thanks..

But now iv disconected both plugs and the light is still flashing... What now!!!!

 

Uh oh. Now i'm stumped.

Try resetting it again. If that doesn't work disconnect your battery overnight.

 

Does anyone have the right procedure to folow as im sure i did not do it the right way.. Just pluged the to together then unpluged them...

Thanks Rob

 

Plug them together, press and depress the accellerator without starting the engine a few times and then take it for a run till the lights flashes. Then disconnect them.

 

Sorry one more question should i disconect them when the engine is running or not????

Thanks..

 

I normally disconnect them when they're off for safety reason. My feet are normally above the headrest while I fiddle with the plugs.

 

Ok..

Well iv connected the plugs.. Switched on but not started. Pressed Gas a few times.. Started.. Light stays out.. just before i start to pull off the engine check light starts to flash but have driven a few miles normal driving.. Switched off disconnected and the damm light is still flashing away.. Even tryied giving it some stick and the light just keeps flashing..

HELP bloody thing is bugging me now...

Thanks for all the help so far..
Rob

 

Uh oh, I'm stuck now. Disconect the battery overnight and hope for the best.

 

Any updates?

 

Have not disconnected the battery.. But tried the Plugs again..

Just dont understand why it wont work... Its not like the light is allways on so its not serious (well hope not)

Is there a guide that i can print off so i make sure i do it dot by dot if you know what i mean.

Thanks for all your help..
Rob

 

Check out my home page(see profile) has ECU reset procedure & error codes.

Once you've ensured the reset is OK - if you still getting an error code - tell us what the code is & I'll do my best to help.
