ProEcm problems

Defiantguy · 02-15-2004, 02:36 PM

I installed a proecm I got off fat tits and I'm having CEL issues. I'm pretty sure my wires are correct and I'm grounding to a bolt by the ecu. After about 1.1 miles it throws a CEL and I get stuck in limp mode(can't rev past 4500rpms). Anyone have any suggestions for me?

Also, I accidentally cut a wire for the turbo application but I reconnected, soldered, and taped up the connection so its good. Could that be throwing the cel? Any help would be greatly appreciate, thx.

Might help if you got the code pulled and could tell us which one it is.

I was getting a code for speed sensor that was similar. One of the wires was loose.

question, I used a ground wire to ground the proecm now. Cept when I turn the car off, the power light on the ecm stays on. Is this normal?
