heres the problem...i installed a Blitz Sus power intake a while back...and my car spools up much slower than stock...i heard that resetting my ecu will fix the problem...how do i reset it? im new at this... wut wire do i unplug? i heard you just disconnect your battery for few min..then its reset???

 

yup un hook the battery

 

Haven't done this myself. I've read that you unplug neg. terminal, pump break pedal a few times, wait for 10 min. Then restart and let idle for a few min. Then drive it run through all gears into high rpms. I think you can also unplug the ECU fuse in the fuse box.

 

pictures? anyone? plz?

 

Just unplug the - battery terminal and wait for a few minutes.

 

why are you doing it the hard way?

Do it like me.

On the passenger side where the ECU is. There is 4 plugs. 2 big ones on the sides, 2 small ones on the middle.

Disconnect the 2 big ones on the side for 5 seconds, plug it back in, resets your ecu.

Becareful taking the ECU cover open. It's right below the glovebox.

Have fun and don't pull too hard.

 

pictures??...i jus want to be extra careful..i luv my evo

 

oh, one more thing. ONce you've done it my way, the RPMs going to idle start at 2000 RPM.

let it idle for couple of minutes then turn your car off. Then Start again and it'll idle at normal.

 

if u disconnect the neg terminal for about 10-15 mins when u connect it back i always put my key in 2 clicks just before starting to let ir reset for 3 mins then start the car

 

uhh your not the only one and you don't need pictures for something so simple. Just unplug the neg. terminal and wait 15 mins and plug it back in and that's it. lol...pictures...

 

ok, hold on.... so demanding

 

not for the battery method...the simplier method..

 

thank u by the way

 

How to Reset your ECU without disconnecting your battery or even getting out of the car.


1 Locate the ECU Cover


2 Remove it the cover carefully from the engine side clips.

3. You'll see 4 yellow plugs.

4. disconnect the ones on the side of it for 5 to 10 seconds.

5. start the car, let it idle for 5 minutes or so

6. turn the car off, turn it on again, let it idle for 5 minutes before you drive.

7. Enjoy your warmth and the joy of killing the cel light. That and you don't loose your radio stations.


ps. don't mine the red thing, it's my multi power plug mounted on the ecu cover.

 

I think taking off the negative is a bit easier....IMO. My car is a pain to get those plugs off.
