Question

Scoobynet'ers,

Anyone know of a scooby specialist (not main dealer) where I can get my WRX '03 ECU reset (after touching fuel cut the other day!)?

Nearest to Bournemouth, Dorset or Southampton, Hamshire would be great.

TIA
-Steve.

Try Triton Motor Services on Hurn Airport Ind'l Estate, they deal with Impreza'z and Evo's alike and I have never had any probs with 'em!

Andy at Triton has looked after my Evo for over 2 years now, after learning the hard way he is the only person I would trust anymore.

On the older MY's you just had to disconect the battery over night to reset the ECU. Not 100% sure about 03's though.

You don't need to go to a specialist just for a reset, I'll do it for free .

Its dead simple, type ECU reset into search and you will find two ways of doing it - either by disconnecting the battery or using the green and black connectors under the dash by the steering column.

Ian, Jay,

I've been told, recently on a thread I started, that the MY=>01 can not be manually reset. I had a MY00 before and, as you say, resetting them was easy!

I which it was possiable on MY03's i.e. no connectors under the steering column anymore!

Another vote for Triton.

They purchased all the diagnostic equipment/tools/manuals etc from when Chapelgate closed down.

In recent weeks they have fitted 4 discs, pads, hoses, fluid and an exhaust to my car.

All done faultlessly and I'm a fussy tw@t.
