I was reading on this website that a few 95 eclipse's had a very rare EPROM ECU. How can I found out if I have one, and whats so speacil about this EPROM ECU.
PCE!!

I found out that you have to open it up and look on the chip and it will have a E on it. If you do you have a EPROM ECU and they r very rare the guy said.

The E has nothing to do with anything. I heard from people that had E ecus that were not eprom. Its simple. Open it up, and there will be an EPROM or there wont be one :) Go to www.tmo.com to find pics of what it looks like and where it is. Takes 10-15 minutes total.
EPROM on 95 is actually common. I had the rare non-eprom ECU in my 95. It was built in june of 95 so its practically a 96. Earlier 95s typically do have an EPROM ECU.

now the thing i dont understand is why dont all of the turbo 2nd gen eclipses and talons have EPROM'd ECU's! cause now i have to go buy a damn ECU... why cant it be more simple! well i guess its a DSM! :dunno:

While your doing that go buy a AF/X ecu for the rst :wink:

I heard that they were used in the first year because mitsu was unsure how the code would work out, perhaps bcause they implemented OBDII before it was a requirement, and having an EPROM ECU would greatly simplify implementing a fix in the event of a problem/recall.
The reson one would want an EPROM ECU is that its the only way to run a chip like DSMlink, TMO, Keydiver, etc.

no... i think i am done with the RST for right now! all my money is goin to the GST!
