codes?clearing codes?

Post by shizzl »

hi all....im new to this legacy site(the phattest shizzl ever).....
i have a few queries id like solved.....as ya do...

most of you go on about codes..and clearing/sorting codes and things....what is it?are they like bugs in the ecu?
maybe thats whats up with my 89 RS....
how do you check codes etc?
itd be handy if there was a reset button on the ecu :P

i was thinking of binning the standard ecu for a group A chip....
good move?it has a 2 3/4 exhaust right through....and a nicely clogged up K&N filter,i have a good front mount i/c for it off a 97 VR4 legnum(mitsi)....its 500x150x70(core size.)its the perfect size for the front....
i also have a good grounding wire kit to put on it off my old vr4 wagon too..and a GReddy boost gauge......just need a bigger turbo now :twisted:
doin it for possum bourne (R.I.P subaru king)

The codes are diagnostic outputs the ECU puts out when it gets errors from sensors.

Check out my site for info on how to read the codes, what they are, and how to reset them.
