Cool

I was rummaging around under my dashboard the other day and found a resesed socket under the steering wheel, the socket looks like you could only slip a PCB in to it, does anyone know what this is for?? is it for reprogramming the ECU or what????


Cheers

This is where your local friendly dealer plugs in the select monitor, to view errors codes and fault find problems with your car!

Wurzel,

You can also plug in a laptop running Deltadash software. This allows you to watch real-time info on your car, such as speed, engine rpm, o2 sensor, air-flow, knock detection, etc..

Ozzy, any idea where a mere mortal might obtain this software or is it only for dealers and mechanics.

Wurzel, have you been on the moon lately?

EcuTek - It's a couple of hundred quid, but well worth it if you like modding your car.

There's loads of post in Drivetrain and even some nice graphs too look at. Check out http://www.scoobynet.co.uk/bbs/threa...d=90011&Page=2

Well now you come to mention it so are you telling me that you are not a frequent flyer to the moon then

Sorry M8 I don't actually get out of the muppet forum much and lately the company that employs me has made me do something called work so I have not had much posting or reading time.
