Yeah, all the stuff about waiting for the fans to come on is bo***cks. Just unplug the ECU for 10 minutes or so. Job done.________________________________________ Rich |

So you recommend we just start car up after battery has been off for 10mins and then just drive off? Odd because the FAQ on it gives a little more detail like 1) Turn key to second click but dont start ignition (for 30 seconds I think) 2) Start car up and idle until at 90 ________________________________________ 306 LX 1.4 Phase 2**Current Body Mods** 4 x 4" Exhaust System Full B/Kit (Front, Skirts, Mirrors & Rear) Bonnet with Scoop Full Tinted Rear Windows 17" Alloys Lights |

Wait for the fuel pump to finish priming before you start the engine but that's it. Everything else in the FAQ is nonsense.Why have you been resetting your ECU so much? ________________________________________ Rich |
