Dujo Posted July 3, 2012 Share Posted July 3, 2012 It is supposed to be unplugged. It is used as a physical control switch to put the ECU in a state where it can accept a new ROM loaded onto the computer. It's done as a plug so that there's no possible way you could accidentally bump a switch. I don't know if it has any other purpose. But you only connect them when you are flashing your ECU. You don't even connect them when logging. Leave 'em be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Max Capacity Posted July 3, 2012 Share Posted July 3, 2012 Leave them unplugged, they are for reflashing the ECU. Do not plug them in, When you get the tuned then you'll connect them to reflash the map. 305,600miles 5/2012 ej257 short block, 8/2011 installed VF52 turbo, @20.8psi, 280whp, 300ftlbs. (SOLD).

mwiener2 Posted July 3, 2012 Share Posted July 3, 2012 Their actual purpose and name are the "test mode" connectors. When connected, the ECU cycles every relay and switch in the car on and off. It's used to check vehicle components upon first delivery at the dealer. It just so happens that it also puts the ecu into a writable state.
