Ok so it seems every time I fix something on my car some thing else breaks.
Case in point, I just got a new clutch and flywheel. Now my ecu is throwing a code for "ecu has been unplugged in the last 50 key turns".

The facts about the car
CAI
Spec 3 clutch
Unorthodox light weight flywheel

Do I need to reflash my ecu, or wipe the code off, or get a new ecu

Any help is greatly appriecated
 
It sounds to me like one of a few possiblities either a pcm issue (which is unlikely) or a bad connection somewhere. Is there any drivability issues? Also check the main pcm power relay i beleive on your car would be inside the car on the passenger side of the center pillar by your feet next to the pcm.
 
Thanks Shocker
I found out it was my Ex's boyfriend he cut and re-taped my top plug on my ecu
Again thank you for your help
 
He is and no I'm trying to remain on somewhat good terms with my ex
