Accessport not reverting car to Stock
Hey guys,
I'm new here, but my brother, skeeler, (whos car I now drive) used to frequent this board. I figured I would turn to you guys because this car is driving me nuts. I need to smog my car, however, the tune on the car is preventing my monitors from clearing.
The car is an 05 wrx, it had a catless uppipe/downpipe/TBE/accessport tune. I put the oem downpipe back and took it to the smog shop. I passed the snipper and visual, however, the monitors had not cleared and they could not pass me. I searched on here the things to clear the monitors, i.e. idling, driving between 20-30, between 40-60 with coasting, and more idling. But after 1.5 months of driving the car, the monitors have yet to clear. I had the smog shop look at it, and they suggested I have the dealership reflash the ECU to stock, which after talking to the dealership, they cannot do.
I have the accessport, however, the last time i tried reverting to stock, myself, the device said something along the lines of "turn the car off, then on..." while it loaded the map. Well the car kept dying when we tried it. Anyone have any ideas what to do from here? Any local shops (I'm in sacramento/west sac) that could help me? Any help would be appreciated, my car was due for smog in July...

So I tried using my access port again. I found out I do not have the white cable that I am supposed to connect to the matching white cwire when put the car into test mode. I am assuming that is the issue I am having when trying to reflash the ecu. I called that number awhile back and they suggested I call Cobb. Now I tried to call him again and the number has been disconnected.
Is thereany other shops around town that are familiar with subies?
