is it possible to change an auto ecu to a manual ecu without chipping? i am currently running an auto ecu on my y8 but am getting tired of the check engine light being on b/c of the neutral lock out thing? is there a way to do this? i have electrical skills and what not. thanks for any help givin.

yeah u can and its easy as heck!!!...well for the obd1 ecu p28...all u need is to cut the resistor rp17 and put a jumper on rp18 which is on the auto/manual selction part of the ecu...

lower right....

 

yep. just cut both rp17 and 18, then jumper rp18.

if you are afraid you'll mess it up. You can send me your ECU and I'll do it for you. I do that sort of thing on a daily basis.

 

i left the resistor on rp18 and it werks fine

 

sweet! thanks for the help guys. will be doing this shortly

oh yea, i am running a p28 on my y8, im not trying to do this on my obdII ecu. thanks again

 

check out the link. look inparticular at the RP17 (just cut) it.

5spd ECU is shown.
