If it's got a SimTec ECU, then you cannot reset the ECU yourself...

depending on car and ECU make, then yes it is possible to wipe the ECU memory. In my expereince with my old 1.2 Corsa, it had a Bosch/GM unit and disconnecting battery for 2 hours did not wipe it. However leaving battery disconnected overnight worked. Reconnected battery and started her up, sounded like it was going to stall to start with, but kept itself going until it was at steady idle.
