Tuned ECU FAQ's
- Q: My engine is not running right and the Check Engine Light is on, will a tuned ECU fix this?
- A: A tuned ECU will fix this if your ECU is definitely bad. Unfortunately most of the time these issues are not caused by a faulty ECU but rather by faulty sensors or wiring issues in your car. If you have a bad sensor or wiring problems you need to fix them before installing a tuned ECU since the tuned ECU will not magically fix the bad sensors or wiring and you will most likely damage the tuned ECU if you do have wiring problems. In some cases we might be able to program out some sensor but please check the diagnostic guide to figure out the source of the problem first.
- Q: How does the CEL Shift Light work?
- A: The CEL Shift Light is an option that we offer in our tuned Honda and Acura ECUS which illuminates the Check Engine Light in your dash board after a certain RPM, thus functioning as a shift light indicating you to shift gears after you hit that RPM range. This option will only work if your car has no CEL faults and the CEL is off.
- My ECU is damaged can you tune and fix it?
- A: Due to the complexity of the ECU it's most time more cost effective to get a new ECU compared to having our technicians spend hours trouble shooting and fixing it. We have fixed minor problems in the past at a reasonable price but we believe it's always good to start with a good working core to prevent any problems down the line.
