Spatt Posted June 30, 2016 Posted June 30, 2016 Hi guys. I just changed my coil packs and now the car appears to have gone into limp mode? Will rev but only to 2500 then it hits a wall and bounces like a limiter. I'm pretty sure the coils have gone back properly.. do I need to get to a garage to reset ecu Quote
veeg33 Posted June 30, 2016 Posted June 30, 2016 I think you can reset using pedal dance? If still facing problem, get the code and see what's triggering the limp mode mate. Quote
veilside z Posted June 30, 2016 Posted June 30, 2016 Try disconnecting the battery and reconnect as this acts as a reset procedure. Quote
GT Driver Posted June 30, 2016 Posted June 30, 2016 Try disconnecting the battery and reconnect as this acts as a reset procedure. Good to know. Disconnecting the negative terminal I assume - how long should it be roughly disconnected for? Quote
veilside z Posted June 30, 2016 Posted June 30, 2016 I would give it half an hour, and disconnect both terminals, won't hurt. Quote
Spatt Posted June 30, 2016 Author Posted June 30, 2016 Rather embarrassingly guys I forgot to plug my MAF Sensor in Problem is sorted. Quote
Keyser Posted June 30, 2016 Posted June 30, 2016 At least you found it - took someone I know 2 days to work out they put the MAF in backwards Quote
