ECUtec remap
Hey folks,
I have a ecutec remap on my 2001 wrx.
Is there a way to have a switch other than the rear demist wired in.
Alternatively is there a way to have a LED to show if its on or off?
Cheers
Dan

I can tell if i floor it but I'd prefer to have a visual for when I'm driving slow.
Where would I wire the switch into? It would have to go onto the ecu somewhere?

If the button doesn't actually demist the window just rob the wires off the back of the switch and put them on to a new switch of your choice..... Bit Ghetto LOL

rear windows demist still works.
Map only swaps if throttle is on the floor and you double click the switch. It is therefore probably more complicated than just robbing the wires.

It's a little more complicated in the the Bug ECU can't hold 2 maps.......the "switch" is recognised by the ECU and reduces boost but nothing else.
As there are not 2 maps then why bother switching to a low boost ?? I've not bothered with mine for 6-7 years LOL

As mentioned the ECU senses the rear demister combined with 100% TPS and reduces boost.........I'm not certain how this could be incorporated into a switch?
I agree with Stealth.....above
