    EAS reset NEED EQUIPMENT!!!

    Hi all
    EAS on the Classic had a spaz on the weekend. went funny after taking my trailer off. Tried my spare ECU but automatically showed the same fault so want to diagnose before it goes into herniated disc mode. I need to plug it in preferrably to a Testbook but if anyone has a Kicker I can borrow, it would be very much appreciated.
    I will come to you and can do it in your drive if need be. Would be Saturday 25th after about 12pm Perth metro area. I work in Welshpool and live in Alexander Heights.
    Pm me or call me on 0437 377 619.

    Cheers

    Andrew.

    Go to Jaycar, get an OBD2 plug and a serial plug, a bit of cable. Then come back here and I'll tell you where to down load the software to do the rest and how to make up the reset cable.

    Or check The Good Oil on this forum for the links.

    Ron, found this on the Jaycar site.......

    Wonder if it works on LR's???

    On a Classic, I presume the connector right in the corner next to the brake master is the main data connector??

    Here's a first! I think I'm going to overrule Ron!!

    The Classic doesn't have an OBD2 connector, but you can still build the cable, you just need to hard wire it to the EAS connector. Check the link previously shown.

    did the tail end lift up heaps as you were dropping the trailer off? if it did you might have out of ranged and damaged a position sensor.

    You've got me worried now!!

    I might have to rip out my interior just to be sure I don't have an OBD2.

    It did lift a bit, but nothing unusual to what it normally does. Shouldnt have gone out of range as the trailer only weighs 380kg!
    This is why I want to plug it into Testbook first to see what the fault is.
    When I plugged in my spare ECU, it automatically faulted but didn't drop down, which is what usually happens when its a wheel sensor. It could be the pressure switch as I have had a fault or two from this before.
    BTW, I did a drawing on the details you sent last night. I am going to see if I can link in the tank pressure switch to control the compressor cutout as it does in the normal ECU. Will let you know if it works!

    There are 2 ECU's under the driver's seat on a 93, from memory the top one is EAS, I am sure it has it marked on it. It is not an OBD plug, it has a small white plug with about 5 pins. You will need testbook or similar to read the faults.
    You say you changed the ECU was it the EAS ECU

    It was. Both the original and the spare have the same part number.
    Have had it reset before but never paid attention to the Testbook connection.
    What is the connector behind the brake master in the engine bay anyway?

    As i usually have a company car and Kevin is only just around the corner, I might just take it to him and get it done tomorrow.

    Last time I had it reset at a dealer, it played up a bit and leaned full over to the left. The 'head' mechanic came over, played around and plugged an ECU in under the passenger seat and eventually it levelled out and worked.

    Drove home and the ABS light wouldnt switch off.

    Turned out he plugged the EAS into the ABS hence my 'spare' ECU.

    I plugged this one back into its rightful place and it worked fine!
    If someone is dumb enough to do that, think I deserve to keep it!
