Re-Setting the ECU

[DC2.R]

Re-Setting the ECU after installing a CAI.....is this true???? Have heard that people do this to allow for the increased airflow. Has anyone done this???

It won't do much but try it anyways.

Either take out your ECU fuse for a few mins or unplug your battery (neg terminal) for a few mins.

yeah do it.. wont do much as in there wont be 30% more power or anything, but it should make your motor idle smoother and also provide more efficient fuel ecconomy.

I apologise if this is a bit of topic, but if you have a vafc2 connected and you reset the ecu, will it reset the vafc as well? or will the vafc keep the programed setings in place?

Thanks guys ill give it a go. I have no idea in regards to the VAFC2....sorry bud

[ProECU]

Wont do anything. ODB2 ecu will re-learn a/f parameters = no effect

Disconnecting the battery didn't affect any settings with my VAFC(1), so I highly doubt they'll affect it in the VAFC2. :)

is there any proper way of re-setting the ECU? like start it up and let it idol for 2 min or drive soft or drive hard????



i also have a vafc2 and it didnt change, or reset that.....

with a worm engine, with the Key Off Engine Off Disconnect the negative battery termminal, wait 30sec or more, reconnect it. start the car and tel it idle for 1 min in park or nuetral.

Nothing man, Just got an aftermarket CAI which runs down into the front and sucks cold air.
