New2Scoobs, I've now found out from this forum that all Imprezas need to 'connect' the flash block even to read the ECU ROM.
Please see below an illustration of two connectors the professionals use to jumper the flash block connector. Note that these connectors fit on to ones under the dash so they are the male side of the connector - you'll see the female side under your dash.
I assume you have the 2002 connector as above? If so you just need connect those pins together with a wire.
Hope this helps.You should now be able to read your ECU image. I'll update my instructions soon for
Reading and Reflashing ECUs Using ECUFlash to cater for these different connectors.
Let us know how you get on,
-Steve.
Editted to say that I have created a page to document
connecting to your ECU. If you find any errors please edit (adding an author name/nickname).
