PSI3 ECU Data Monitor Reset?
Hello, I got my first subaru yesterday. And i'm having a blast, how ever I were going to the store today. And all of the sudden my ECU Data Monitor decided to change language. I've been searching but I had no luck, is there a way to reset it back to orgianl english ?
It's hard to navigate in the menu when I don't understand the language. |
did it change language or is it just the screen/display just went weird? they fail with heat and look like some foreign language like hieroglyphics!
|
It did look very much like japanse to me. Even google translate thought it were Japanse. How ever, it changed back the next day. And it seems to be working now.
|
Yeah its caused by heat....is it a dash top mounted one? They suffer worst due to direct heat through windscreen.
Its dry joints that expand & contract eventuay itll just fail permanently and show characters |
I had same issue when I had one and the wires were loose in the connector that plugs in the back of the unit never had any issues after I sorted that
|
I'll have to check the connectors. As it normally don't get hat hot in sweden.

I'd assume it's the screw to the far left and the far right. As the screews in the middle seems to be holding the the whole unit? |
Where has it been placed ? Any pics it's not from the front they are usually held in where the stereo is
or the top dash mount in a single din Type thingie |

Looks like 2 screws behind them tabs then the pod needs to come off if not it maybe s full unit
Yours is on a classic mine was a newage Carefully take the plastic pod off the top start from front nice and easy once off you'll see the plug and everything else Also you could check your obd side plug it's under the footwell My wires were loose behind the unit |

It's not there, if I get random characters I can just give the unit a love tap and it would go back to normal. I'd assume If there is a loose connection it would be behind the unit. |
