back again, when you disconnect your battery, leave it disconnected for about 5 min.

what ecu are you running?
OBD(0), OBD(1), OBD(2)?

Have you fixed the problem already? I did something stupid when I had chipped my ECU and it would throw a code the instant I started my car, even after resetting the ECU.
