Default ECU replacement question

Does changing the ECU set certain things back to default? Bones' locking requires two key presses again and I had it set to one when I got her? (Although she seemed to do her own things sometimes back then even!)

Whenever the ECU is replaced it’s very easy whilst you’re using T4 to go into dealer configurations mode and set up things like speed locking/single press entry/Lazy vents etc, so I guess when your ECU was replaced they didn’t go into dealer configurations mode and ask you what settings you wished to have, or you wasn’t present at the time for them to ask you.

Duncan can do it at the Nano weekend, if he's there or perhaps Jamie with his VT 4

Hi Andy its no problem, I just wasnt sure if it was the ECU swap or Bones having one of her turns hehehehe! If its just the swap I can ignore it until she gets another T4! ☺

Where/when are you going Brian? I'd love your expertise on why my digi temp gauge doesn't work if I can get to you!
