reset ecu before logging?

ColeBerkenbile · 09-13-2012, 03:29 PM

I have a tp stage 2 tune on my 2010 wrx and noticed in the past couple of days my DAM dropped to .8. I'm going to send some logs in to Eric but I'm not sure if I should reset the tune before logging. Tune currently has a couple thousand miles on it

I wouldn't reset them. Make a few logs to see exactly what your car is doing and send him the logs. Just resetting it covers up the real issue imho

he will need to see what is going on right now in order to try and help.

If the DAM has dropped and you have not reset the ECU, reflashed the map, installed the AccessPORT, or disconnected the car's battery, then it has dropped due to perceived knock. You should log with the issue as is, because resetting the ECU will clear any potential useful learned data such as long-term fuel trims as well as reset the DAM to an initial value (which could potentially be higher than the level its dropped to, depending on the tune).
