Diconnecting battery and remap
« on: September 21, 2012, 07:42:58 pm »
Saw a comment elsewhere on the forum that mentioned if you disconnect the battery the remap goes? That is incorrect I hope.

Any comments?

The map doesn't go it just reverts to stock values if the battery is disconnected.

If you have an SPS switch you can turn it back on, if not a visit to your local Revo dealer will be necessary.

You won't lose the map, it will just revert to stock Revo settings.
