I was told by a Mopar Mech that after you change something unhook the battery
for atleast a minute and the hook it back up (Non-OBDII) and it will start
from scratch and learn much faster. I used to change computers back and forht
at the track when I first got the NOS because I couldn't run the MP SBEC with
the juice so they would relearn a couple of times a night and it only took a
few runs and it was bookin. The best runs I had were with this method where
it got train going down the strip. I tried it once this year with the MSD and
MP SBEC but I don't think it work because I did nor loose my radio stations,
the only thing I could think of it the MSD ground wire is attached to the Neg
Battery terminal and came off when I took the neg wire off. I could only
think that the MSD capacitors or something in it held enough charge to where
the computer didn't lose it memory. I have messed with it since.
