MTH Header?

Removed, ...last input, now the issue.

installed my MTH file today. on my Odometer there is the letters EP where the miles usually are located. could this be because the file is attempting to reset the ECU? anyone know or have this after they did the MTH upload?

thanks,

I don't know what this post was supposed to be about but would anyone have a sound clip of an MTH header with JCW exhaust?

I assume you have an auto tranny. This has happened to me with the flash of a software upgrade. The EP and SES lights were triggered, but after about 8-12hrs, the lights disappeared. Probably had to do with the ECU relearning after the upgrade.

you are correct, MCSa i was figuring it may take some time for the ECU to reset or complete the program.

thank you very much for your reply

EP gone

Went out to head home yesterday, and started the MCSa the EP was gone, all messages are normal. When move from Auto to Manual get the message SD, then if move to a gear get message of what gear. So it must have been a reset time needed.

thanks,
Kev

This is a pretty common issue for a Cooper CVT or an MCSa when MTH is loaded. It normally goes away and back to normal display within 50 miles or so.
