Ones thaughts

Have the following faults

12 Air flow meter circuit

43 Throtle sensor circuit

All wiring is correct cut and soldered corectly. But the avcr is showing 15% throtle when it should be arround 100? Very strange. Car goes into limp mode and there i am stranded on a busy road.

How do i go about rectifying the problem. Somebody told me that after turning up the boost i should have the ecu reset as it would not accept the changes untill this is done?

a) Am i right in finking a standard ecu can run 1 bar with no probs?
b) how do you reset the ecu? Will this do anything?



AHHHHHH

you can run at 1 bar on a std ecu as long as youre getting enough fuel in.
try switching off your avcr to start with.
resetting the ecu is done by shorting out the 2 contacts that you do the fault code check with the ign turned on you short it for more than 5 seconds i think.

to reset the ecu you need to disconnect any power to it, either unplug it or disconnect your battery for a bit, when you short the two pins you are clearing any stored fault codes from the system.

Are the 2 faults i have common straight after turning the boost up? Cos it was all working fine untill then and it was doen by a specialist tuner so i would hope it was done properly.
