Default Does Apexi VAFC reset it self after it looses its main power??

I just put in a VAFC jumper harness in my car because it is under warranty(like the skunk2 one where it goes between your main harness and the ECU).. And i was just wondering if i unplug the harness will i lose all my settings on my VAFC?? Does the VAFC have an internal battery backup??

Thanks
Greg

No it remembers everything, even when power is not there.

IT still remembers. I did this so I could relocate it to the glove box.

The only way for it to loose the data, is to go to the initialize option...

I run the hondata S100, but it ended up costing me a lot more than my vafc, especially when it came time to tune it....

Later,
Aj

It will never reset unless you make it reset.

You can always take out the vafc when you leave the car.
