I'll be sure to bring the scanner with me!
Resetting the ECU with a scanner, and clearing the "self learn" that I spoke of, means that the ECU is cleared of all of the monitor setting items, and the adjustments it makes to fuel/ignition timing, etc., according to the way you drive. Even when the light turns itself off, any adjustments or fail safes it's set to keep from damaging the engine due to the part failing don't reset themselves. It's gotta be done specifically with a scanner, which I'll be sure to throw in the car tomorrow, in case you can make it out!  |
Thank you very much Cory. I am going to go to autozone on my lunch today and have the code checked, but I will make sure that they do not clear the code or reset anything. Depending on what the code is, whether it is the same one or not, I will either buy the probe, or take it to Greg's Garage or someone who knows what they are doing if it a worse code. Because I have no boost I am trying to drive the car as least as possible. If I can talk the girlfriend into letting me come or maybe drag her along for a few minutes I will definately be there at the meet to at least see you. It is Valentine's Day and all, but she understands how important cars are to me. Autozone's scanner isn't the greatest but it is free though. I'm crossing my fingers and hoping for the best. I hope to see you guys tonight. Thanks again
