2G Did all 95's come with an EPROM ECU?

Did all 95 Eclipses co?me with an EPROM ECU
Thanks

Nope, but most of the earlier ones did. Check your ECU, I believe if theres an "E" at the end of the code then its an Eprom.

This page on the DSMlink site should help you out a bit.

No, not all 95 models came with the EPROM. But 1995 was the only year of the 2G's that had the EPROM ECU's.

Mr. Boxx - Great link.

 

[jaypeterson]

actually... i think... but may be mistaken. that some 97s came with the eprom too.. Also yes just some 95s came with the eprom.. 90-100% of the eary 95s did..

 

[jaypeterson]

yes some but not all 95s came with eprom... 90-100% of the early ones did though. But I think some of the 97 did too.

Well if you don't know for a fact, please don't post it. Some might take it as fact and that's how hearsay and misinformation spreads. Just trying to keep the info that's posted here accurate.

 

[clipse0001]

Cool, thanks guys. I think I will just look for the E in the corner.

 

[MrBoxx]

This isn't a joke, but this is actually how I checked to see if I had an E in the corner of my ECU sticker: I didn't want to take the whole ECU out, and the sticker is on the firewall side of the ECU case. I just took off the passenger side kick-panel, stuck one of my wife's makeup compacts between the ECU and the floor and shined a mini-MagLight on it. The mirror reflected the sticker, and lo and behold, "E". If you don't want to go through the embarrassment of carrying a compact out to your car in front of your apartment complex, a dental mirror should work too.

Or go to any parts store and buy one specifically for automotive use.

No 96-99' have an Eprom ECU!!!!! 95 was the only year for 2g's that the Eprom was available. And like others have stated, most were eprom, but a few were not.

I thought '95 was the ONLY year of DSM's that had EPROM available. I may be wrong but the way I'm reading it seems as if you're saying 1g's had EPROM as well.

 

[MrBoxx]

Some 1g's did. The link I posted will help figure out if they have one.

 

[VelocitàPaola]

For future reference, this link shows which DSM's had EPROM ECUs and which one's didn't.

[project_tsi]

Yes, some 1g's of all years had eproms. If not, there would be no way for 1g's to run DSMLink or a Keydriver chip, etc.

 

[Syndicate13]

The 97 rumor has some truth behind it. The 97 ECU's may be writable but they do not have a traditional EPROM. Flashing is something Tom and Dave have been thinking and possibly working on in the past.

 

[eldiabloz13]

do N/ts have eproms also

 

[VelocitàPaola]

Yes, all the 420A ECUs have internal EPROM. That's how AF/X can upgrade the ECU (97 only though...) and why Satan can reflash it's contents.

 

[steve]

2G N/T cars are a different animal. The Chrysler ECU that goes with the 420A is flashable, not that it helps anyone.

There are 1G N/T EPROM ECUs. They are a slightly different version of the turbo EPROM ECU and with the right parts can be converted.

ok this may be a dumb question but i have been searching alot of sites and came across this one site that stated ALL 95 DSM's have eprom ecus is this tru??

 

[rEclipserGST]

Not true.

 

[007jimmy]

It depends on the build date of the 95s. ALL EARLY build date 95s have eproms.

 

[rcarbajal4]

It depends on the build date of the 95s. ALL EARLY build date 95s have eproms.

What qualifies as early?

 

[XiKeiyaZI]

Anytime during June or before is considered an "early" year. They usually roll over to the next year model after June.

Not All 95's had Eprom ECU's, but a significant amount did. In fact, it's hard to crack open an ECU from a 95 and not find an EPROM. Those who do are the unluckiest of the unlucky.

those built in 94, mine was built in May of 94 eprom ECU
