H3y People!!

I had to disconnect the battery today to work on the stereo. After re connecting the engine is all over the place the idle is off revs are up and down. Is this the ECU?? Everything was fine before hand!

Wats going on!!

quite normal, let it idle for a bit, then go take it for a good drive. Should all be OK after that.

The ECU resets itself if you disconnect the battery.
