There is basically 1 wire from the ecu that needs to be earthed. This will make the ecu warning light flash. The wire goes from the ecu into the 9 pin plug (3 rows of 3 wires) the warning light wire is number 6 on that plug and is brown/blue, I think this is a ground, so you need to use a permanant live. Number 9 wire brown/yellow is the diagnostic wire that needs earthing to read the codes out.

If you have just plugged this 9 pin connector into your cars loom then the warning light should work as usual on your original clocks, and the diagnostic socket should work ok.

If any of that doesn't make sense ask and I'll do my best to help.

There is a 9 pin plug (3x3 pins) coming off one of the main ecu plugs. The wire i mentioned above needs earthing to make the warning light flash. The flash sequence is then counted.
