Sorry to dig up and old thread, but i need to reset my ecu on my my99 wrx. did a search and most of the guys reckon is a simply battery disconnection for 15 minutes. but then i came across this post. so can someone please confirm what the proper procedure is for resetting a stock my99 wrx ecu?

Thanks in advance!
Ken.
