Leg91LS Posted December 17, 2008 Share Posted December 17, 2008 Just replaced leaking upper radiator hose, added pre-mixed coolant and the air has been purged from the coolant system, during purging process, CEL appeared. How do I retrieve the code and clear the ECU? Searches of this database couldn't find ecu code instructions. New user just wants the CEL to go away.

wtdash Posted December 17, 2008 Share Posted December 17, 2008 From Legacy Central (they deal specifically w/the '90-94 Legacy): http://legacycentral.org/library/literature/codes.htm You should also be able to just disconnect the negative battery cable for 1 hour, but not sure if this completely clears the codes or just resets the ECU (not the same thing). Good luck! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good luck! Thanks for the information; I ended up disconnecting the battery and after about 1 hour, the CEL went away, and now the radiator cooling fans aren't running continuously and the engine stopped running rich.
