The tech asked if the battery was disconnected any time recently and wanted to know how many miles I put on it since I purchased. I drove from northeast Virginia to St. Louis at or under the speed limit (no plates) for a total of like 900 miles. I would have though that would have been enough time assuming the ECU was reset before I bought the car.
Maybe Charlie can tell me what the procedure is. I'm sure he gets blamed for stuff like this all the time
