182 ECU in an early 172

[JezzaMac]

Hello,

So I recently turbo'd my early 172.

I bought a second hand AEM FIC-6 which was sold with a ECU, UCH, key etc for a 172.

Turns out that the ECU is actually from a much later 182.

This has caused problems with the ESP and speedo.

I have the ESP light on constantly on the dash and I also have the speedo bouncing about all over the place when driving and no MPG data given on the computer.

Since this ECU has now been mapped by Chris at EFI I don't really want to get rid of it for a 172 ECU, UCH etc etc if I don't have to.

Is there any way that I can get the speedo to work and the ESP light to go out using the 182 ECU.

I have access to CLIP if its something that can be altered in there?

Picture of the car on the rollers.... just because!

Thanks

Reconfigure the settings with clip..is yours abs speedo or speedo sensor ? What faults are logged.

I *think* it’s speedo sensor driven from the box and the 182 ecu would be ABS driven.

I get a P0500 fault and weirdly it throws the EML light on in the bottom corner of the dash! [emoji848]

Do you know where about in CLIP it would be changed?

details for changing speedo reading are mentioned at the bottom of this post.

Speedo problem! 172 Gearbox fitted doesn't have that speedo drive!

Not sure on a 182 one working but you know you need the key and ecu too? just get it sorted in clip seems logical answer.

Its in the uch settings, need to reprogram the clocks, follow the workshop manual as you need to take the battery off at one point so the config saves.

I have seen this "change setting to abs" for speedo referenced several times , but no one has actually confirmed it works.
(it certainly doesnt work on my JC5130 (from jc5 128( converted early PH2 Clio)


I am in "southend on sea" with a Genuine Clip and Alliance box (can box) if you want me to change the settings in your Clocks & UCH to see if it resolves your issue
