Default Flashing the OEM ECU

Just wondering if anyone out there has flashed their own, or knows how to flash the OEM ECU. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated!! Thanks.

AFAIK, the OEM ECU can not be "flashed".

If you just want to reset it, go into the fuse box and pull the 7.5 amp "Backup" fuse for a minute or so.

If you still have the OEM headunit make sure you have the radio code handy when you reset the ecu.

Actually I have an aftermarket head unit, but thanks for the tip.

That's not necessary if you reset the ECU using the backup fuse. It's only required if you do it by disconnecting the battery.
