Dash warning lights on a omex ecu

[Daz Clio Cup]

Hi ya, just finished my ITB and cams upgrade with an omex ecu. Because the standard ecu is hardly connected anymore i have the warning lights on on the dash. (limp mode and emmissions) Now i know these lights are on a databus from the ecu and the only way i can see of turning them off is by removing the led's.
however does anyone know if you can use software and datalead (which i have) to tell the ecu not to report these problems to the dash board?

Cheers for any input guys

You've already gone hardcore, just smash them.

i forgot to mention the 12.6:1 pistons, forged rods, gasflowed head and it's at GDI being tuned. lol

but i can't be asked in taking the god damn dash board out again, it a pain! and besides there isn't a lot left that hasn't been taken apart recently, lol

lol.

Just put some sticky tape over the said bulbs

Failing that buy one of those racing type dashboards (with digital speed and revs).

Lastly, for comedy value, I think you should take it to Renault and say you've got some warning lights that've just come on

I think the only way is to remove the bulbs on the Mk2 dash board mate

or put tape over the light mask

You can sort it with power lines etc but removing the bulbs etc is the only things people ever do.

I know i can take the leds out but i'm just going to run with this theory:

The ecu is a computer running a program. the program knows something is not right and so tells the dash to put a light on. surely there must be a way to alter the program so that it doesn't put the light on on a fault, b ut still works normally when you first put the ignition on, eg all warning lights?

anyone with a program that can access the programming????

 

[Fred@BTM]

yes it can be done, but do you want to ***** about for ages doing it? or just wack a bit of tape in?

 

[Daz Clio Cup]

just wondering if it can be done.

what else am i going to spend my spare time on? lol

Just fancy having a go to sort it properly, then i might be able to help other owners with warning lights after tuning................

If your going to have a go fix the whole UCH instead bin the lot go stand alone.

But how do you get round the dashboard? Speedo, rev counter etc?

Direct feed the dash.

I'd personaly also bin the speedo output from the box run an abs style speedo system.
