ECU + Superchip

Postby Big Walker on Thu Dec 08, 2005 10:32 pm

Can someone tell me an easy way to remove the ECU and then where does the Superchip plug in?

I have a 1.6Si 16V 95 Fester :D :D :D

Cheers in advance

you dont have to take the ecu out,
look underneath the dash on the passenger side
and you'll see the ecu closest to the wing, on the back of the ecu is a plastic guard, that comes off and you plug the chip in there!

make sure you clean the pins as they should have grease on them to protect them!

I recommend taking the ecu out, you cannot clean the J3 connector (the part of the circuit board that forms the edge connector for the chip) properly without removing the circuit board from both halves of the case.
