Saab 9-3, Handy tip for resetting the ECU

Typewriter · 2012-06-16 14:25:54

Any of you have a newer model Saab 9-3? (2002-present) If yes go to the fuse box beside the battery. Removed fuse #2 & put it back in after 20 mins. This resets the ECU and puts the car back into “Learning Mode” (The computer will relearn your driving style). Its best to do this if the car seems to feel a bit sluggish…

Removed fuse #2 & put it back in after 20 mins.

This resets the ECU and puts the car back into “Learning Mode” (The computer will relearn your driving style). Its best to do this if the car seems to feel a bit sluggish taking off.

By only removing this fuse as opposed to disconnecting the battery you wont have to enter the radio code and reset the clock & radio stations.

Result: Ridiculously quick instant acceleration and fast smooth gear changes.

I’m back up to 175bhp!!! :cool:
