Exactly. I'd like to remove the code from the ROM.

If you have done the mechanical checks and swaps.
Id probavly swap in a replacent ecu as its fairly easy and cheap like $100 on ebay

I already had a local shop use a tactrix cable to flash me to B01C, and there are burnt-in values in the ecu that live past a reflash.
Since that is the case, I don't see how buying a used ECU will solve my problem in a reliable way as those burnt in values will (likely) be different than what they need to be on the used ECU, no?
Additionally, the shop I'm working with is" extremely busy," buying my own tactrix cable also means buying a laptop, and I have never done a reflash. I'm technically inclined, but the risk remains, and I feel having the shop delete the code is likely better in my case
