i had a question about the ecu reset after you install the technosquare ecu. i was wondering if i can just do to +/- battery terminal touch method instead of the way it shows in the ts website?

 

do the battery cable disconnect and touch and hold them together for five second routine, that is the best

Yep this works!

 

okay after i installed my ts ecu, i touched the + and - cables for 5sec. but i am wondering if i am supposed to notice a big difference in performance after the chip? i have a borla exhaust, crawford plenum, crawford cats, injen intake, grounding wires.

 

i don't think i understand....touch the positive and negative terminal of the battery together? isn't that bad?

They are talking about touching the terminals together when the battery is disconnected. Basically, this will drain any compacitive loads in the system by shorting them directly to ground. Something I personally wouldn't want to do to my electronics.....

ah, i see. hey KPierson, do you mean "capacitive?" that runs the risk of damage some of the components in the circuit though....i guess if the discharge of the capacitors were of small enough current, then it would be okay, but sounds too risky.

n1cK!

ps-KPierson, what's the status of makin' new window roll-up boards?

Yeah, I meant capacitive, as in the capacitors that would store enough current to keep enough power in the ECU for it to 'keep' its memory. Without knowing exactly how many and what size caps there are in the car it is impossible to determine the risk involved, but I would much rather find another way to reset the ECU. I just hope someone with a 1F cap for thier stereo doesn't try this!!!!!

N!ck,

I've got one of the new boards in my car right now, and I've sent out about 5-6 of them for a quick 'test.' It will be about another week before we are ready to ship out the next shipment, as I have all the inventory with me in Baltimore, Md, and my brother ships them from Columbus, Ohio.

ouch, that would hurt!!

i also hear that you are planning on makin' a remote start unit that works with the oem remote (i think i heard that from daniel). is that true? that would be nice, really nice!

I think that the battery technique will reset all of the settings on your stereo too though.
