Microtech Resetting?

[Jago]

hey all. My car has been dead for a few months now, and tonight was the first night i started it up in a while. SO, just wondering, does the microtech reset after a certain ammount of time of the car being dead or does it have an in built battery? If it does reset, does it revert back to a base map? And if so, what is the base map like? (something to worry about?)

Nah the microtech wont reset.The last time will be in the EPROM

Only time this loses its mind is if you restart it

isn't ROM whiped when all current is lost though?

That's what happens with computer ROM, to whipe it you take out the battery on the motherboard and put it back in again. I thought this might have the same effect?

Anyway, thanks for the info, saves me a retune

are you thinking of RAM

Random Access Memory clears on power off

Read Only Memory is used for Bios details and doesnt clear on power Off
