ECU identification
Posted: Tue Dec 27, 2005 9:06 amHi everyone,
From Australia here, so I expect I will be doing most of it experimentally of course, I must congratulate on how far everything has come in the past year or so, I remember looking here then and there was promise but im truly shocked at how far everything has come.
I haven't actually bought my WRX yet, but will shortly, obviously I want to try and buy a model thats ECU corresponds in some way (in general access/technology) to a US model.
Say with the same interface and that using software here can actually read/flash to the ECU. Im expecting (and looking forward too) customising the XML for existing software or writing my own in order to find the appropriate memory locations, ive done this for my mitsubishi based on DSM research in the US and it was very enjoyable, if a bit long winded.
According to an information source which won't be named:
AUS/SA WRX 03/04 - AF770
AUS/SA WRX 03/04 - AJ420
What information does this tell us ? Does it mean that its a Denso/other type? Does the code seperate more then this and say its base type is compatible with MYXX USDM model ?
Cheers for any advice, sorry if this has been covered I couldn't find it(ill continue to look).
