HOW TO RESET ECU on MY02 STi Bue Eye
Hi guys
Does anyone know how to reset the ecu on my car? i have removed the air resonator box ans filter and replaced it with a short arm elbow and k&n airfilter. this effect is essentially the same as fitting a cold air induction kit but keeps the car looking stok from the engine bay. the only problem is that it coughs and splutters a bit on starting. might need ecu reset in light of 'induction modifications' any help would be greatly appreciated. |
Disconnect your black battery connection, then depress brake pedal for about 10 seconds, connect it back up and your done! This solved my problems :thumb:

many thanks alloy.

What does this do exactly? I've just done similar with my bugeye WRX and the boost now hunts a bit when accelerating hard? will this 'Reset' help ?

download my software and do it through that. takes 5 seconds, rather than disconnecting the battery.
the software is free from www.tari.co.za. calvin. |

AFAIK disconnectiong the battery and draining any residual capacitors by pressing the brake pedal will wipe out any "learning" that the ECU has undergone and will also re-set the advance multiplier.
This is not a "true" reset which can only be sorted by a SECS or a Select monitor attached to the ODB port under the steering wheel. I thought the ECU had a "Cold start" setup which wouldn't be affested. Also at idle the ECU is open loop and reading the Lambda to try and achieve stoich which again isn't affected by a re-set. Maybe the Induction kit is fooling the MAF, When I had my Induction kit fitted I had to have the MAF re-scaled in the ECU (Via EcuTeK) The Standard airbox with a panel filter was good enough for 325 BHP out of my modded MY02 bugeye :D :D Shaun |
