Resetting your ECU with BIG`O

[panda[cRx]]

that means head unit needs security ID... and I lost that bloody id.

call ur local honda dealer with your VIN number mate. they'll do a hondanet check and u'll have it in under 2mins

just work by the code - if u mod your car and have a stock ecu...pop the hood and take out the 15a PGM-FI main relay fues. wait ten mins, put the fuse back in, start the car and let it idle for 10mins, then slowley work thru the gears and revs.

Vollah!

can i do that for my civic as well? any one have write up or pic to follow? i search but nothing comes out -__-"

[spardikis]

yup, do the same. pop the hood, take out the 'PGM-FI fuse, or just disconnect the black battery terminal (make sure you have ur alarm and stereo worked out for power failure!!!) and your away. u cant go wrong if u pull the PGM-FI fuse. otherwise, just unplug your ecu and leave it for 10 mins, then follow the other steps.

I just reset my ecu.. unplugged the fuses for 30 minutes.
plugged it back up let the car idle till it was warm with the bonnet down.

then took it up and down the street easily reving 1st 2nd and 3rd out..

results..

the car runs smoother and is more sharper on acceleration(responsive).
i reckon this should be done after everytime you change something on the car...

Good technical help!!!!!

Dont like correcting people but did u read the rest of the thread.
Pulling just the ecu(PGM-F1)fuse effectively does nothing seeing as ur ignition key disconnects this fuse from the ecu everytime u turn it off.

You need to pull the BACK-UP fuse for the ECU

Which is a 7.5A on tegs,associated with ur clock,stereo etc
A 10A fuse labelled Hazard Lights on a Gen 2 Crx
The others i dont know,somebody fill in the blanks......

you have to pull the fues like CRXer said above. 7.5 amp backup fues for 30 seconds

any longer is overkill

when is the best time to do this. in the morning. midday. evening. or midnite.

[JasonGilholme]

when your hungry!?!?! lol

Anytime should be fine. It only takes 10 minutes MAX to do.

[TYPE-ONE]

but i mean like with respect to weather conditions. would it be better on a cold night or a warm day.

[JasonGilholme]

AHH i see. sorry. lol

Good point. not sure. I spose the ECU will learn the best AF ratio for a certain temp when it encounters it.

That might be one for the ECU kings.
