themechanic phoned roger clarke,and they said would not make a difference if the ecu was reset or not,as if there was a prob it would just put the code straight back up,or store it if there was no problem...

But if you reset the ECU & cleared the code between the old part and fitting the new part then it would show if it is STILL a fault or if just the old fault remaining and new part may be fine.

i.e. if code came back, you still have the problem and it wasn't that pat.
If code stayed away then you fixed the problem with the new part.

as the other guys said, reset your ecu incase it has banked the fault
simple to do and its worth doing just to check if it is cos u never know
ive always reset my ecu if ive changed a sensor etc
