fyi my Cruise Control stopped working even with the switch, it just blinks rapidly and reconnecting the wire didnt fix it

 

You must have kept the switch open too long. Once it throws a code you have to clear the code before the CC will start working again.

When I was messing around with this I noticed that sometimes I could drive hours and not throw a code but somtimes it won't take much at all.

 

did u clear the code by using the standard gas pedal reset?

 

No, I reset it through Cypher or my OBDII reader. I never tried the gas pedal method as I always have Cypher or my OBDII reader with me.

 

damnit, the gas pedal reset didnt work for me. i hate not having CC

 

how about a battery disconnect.
I guess the moral is, dont leave the switch open for more than your pull.

or use nitrous

 

if I dont care about break boosting, but would like to do a burn out once in a while, what can I do?

 

I would guess that a battery reset would work.

Autozone will clear codes for free with an OBDII reader.

 

The Greddys are 18's not 16's.

 

Which pin is 101? I hav an '03 pin layout ecu. I keep reading that after 2003 its flipped or some retarded ****. I just want to brake boost damn it.

 

RIF = Reading is Fundamental.

Above is the layout of what the pins look like when you disconnect the ECU from the harness. So if you are looking for some kind of special fuse box that resembles this you won't find it. Just go under the passenger side dash and locate the ECU, disconnect it and track down the appropriate pin and identify the wire leading out...install a switch and connect to the wire leading to that pin. Now you can easily turn on/off the ability for the computer to read the signal being transmitted when applying the brakes.

 

I just unplgged the grey cable under the hood up by the reservoir. Brake lights still work, abs off, tcs off. lol.

Thanks though.

 

so you got your brake lights to work but yet ur car wont bog when pressing the brakes and gas at the same time? this sounds like something i want to try since the base model didnt bring traction control anyways.

 

The thing is you still keep traction control with the 101 switch, not so much by pulling the grey wire in the engine bay. Its all in what liability your willing to assume. If you wreck and hurt or kill some one and they find that that with ABS you would have stopp in enough time to prevent an accident you will be racked over the coals. At least you still have abs, the only feature seamingly killed with the 101 mod is the panick break feature, eventualy CC if you drive alot with it on.

This should be used as a happy switch and not a driving switch. On only when needed and you should have any problems with only a few exceptions.

 

Brake boosting is it BCM specific function or is it handled by the ECU?

Reason I ask is it something that can be manipulated when you flash your ECU
to remove limiters and what not?

 

It is controlled by you. You hold the brakes down to stop you acceleration while on the throttle building boost.

 

Have you tried pressing the brakes and gas at the same time?

The computer will stop fuel delivery that's why i ask is it something that can be manipulated with a ECU flash

 

It is definately a function of the ECU. I've never seen that anyone has been able to reprogram that functionality of the ECU.

 

Yes I have, but I installed a switch.

Miss understood what you were asking I guess.

 

i like to spool them up with a shot of nitrous

much better
