Technical ECU reset

[ChrisMClark]

I apologise if theis has been covered elsewhere, but I did a search and all that came up was stuff about resetting the sercvice light.

Simple question though...

How long does the battery need to be disconnected for to reset the ECU?

 

[multipete]

remove the leads from the battery and touch them together briefly[5 secs].then leave them for 10 mins.

After my recent Idle problems (continuing) all I can say is my FIAT dealer say that ECU resets can take a few times to correct any underlying issues - and thats with full reloads using the original FIAT software - so don't hold your breath?!

 

[ChrisMClark]

Never mind then!

I know the Stilo ECU is constantly learning, but I wanted to wipe it after I fitted my new forced air induction kit earlier (which by the way sounds great but is total garbage...and may well be coming off at the weekend!).

Just drop a 2.4 in there

 

[ChrisMClark]

I would...if I wasn't only 22 and therefore an easy target for insurers.

Reminds me actually...

What do you do if you see an insurance broker bleeding on your front lawn?











Stop laughing and shoot the tw*t again! :devil:

FPMSL - I don't have such problems, being an old balding git and all that

 

[ChrisMClark]

It's actually a joke about Percussionists, but being one myself I decided to change it. I'll put one more up then save the rest for the jokes thread in LL.
So...

Why won't a shark attack an insurance broker?
