Reset ECU - 1.2 65hp petrol 56 plate

Post by Daemonix »

Hi all,

Im looking for the sequence (or just a simple way) to reset the ecu on my car. So all the warning light will go off and check if they will come back.

I found this online but its for a different vw i think and it look like a joke too :s
RESETTING THE ECU
1) Remove Neg - off battery for 3 minutes.
2) Leave drivers door open and reconnect battery.
3) Leave bonnet open and switch car ignition lights on ( ANOTHER 3 MINUTES) DO NOT START THE CAR.

When the times is up remove keys put keys back in car and start car.
This will removal all error codes on vags and audi's unless its Crash data will can only be removed by vag coms.
Cheers

That sometimes works but it very much depends what's actually causing the error. Best to just get it scanned by your local garage
