Is this ecu reflashed?

Post by foxone64 »

Hi,

does this ecu have the RH reflash for the 05/06 type-s?

o2 sensor is dead. Common with race headers or engine mounts which increase the vibration.

Hi,

I have a. 07 RDX and I can't seem to get the flashpro to load in my tune..I can see that the premade tune (Acura RDX stock, tuned) should have a notable gain in performance, I keep uploading the tune and every time it cycles through the sensors and seems like it's doing something, but when I take it out there is no noticeable difference in performance, and in sport mode the rpm limiter does not cut off at 7200rpm...

Please help :(

Please start your own thread as this has nothing to do with this topic.

I've replaced the O2 with a new one and still get the same P0172 code...... What else can it be? I didn't have this issue until after the reflash.

Maybe the wires to the O2 sensor have been damaged.

The wire between the O2 & connector is new. The wires on the engine harness side is in good condition with no tear or damages. Only difference or most recent change to my vehicle is the reflash.......

Test continuity of the wires at the O2 sensor plug back to the ECU.

Have you followed the troubleshooting steps for this error in the Helms Manual (factory service manual)?
