Default Is my ECU chipped?

Hi there

I took the lid of my 2C ECU today, and found a wire on the J1 jumper (not sure if its connected or disconnected).
I can see that there is some kind of daughterboard on it, but is it an original board, or is it modded?

Thanks
Kim

I believe that's modded, but I can't identify the daughter board.
The wires coming off the J1 resistor could be for a standard/ modified map switch.

Yeah, as far as i know, when the wires on J1 are connected, it uses the default mapping, right?

Could be wrong but looks like a SARD ANALYSE daughter board. The idea is to run the wire to a switch so you can swap between the standard map and the modded one.

Uh.. that does not sound like a bad thing

An non-modded ECU does not have anything in the daughterboard socket, right?
