  • Mitsubishi FTO (1996 - 2000) - 95 2.0 changing the engine ecu 6 May 2009 (Forum)
    Hello, I have a replacement ecu for my fto and after spending an hour finding out where it fits I noticed its at the side of the dashboard on the passenger side, may be a silly question but would I need to take out the entire dash to replace the ecu or is there an easier way to do this?
  • Jaguar XJ8 and XJR8 (1997 - 2003) - 98 3.2 ECU location ? 22 Mar 2009 (Forum)
    To try to stop this car stalling at speed I would like to shield the ECU from electronic interference (to remove one possible reason). I intend, if possible, to make and fit a Faraday cage over the ECU - but I can't find it ! Anyone out there who can tell me where it is?
  • Citroen Berlingo Multispace (1998 - 2010) - which ecu? siemens or bosch? 18 May 2008 (Forum)
    In the cbcb HJ says of the berlingo : >>Problem with Siemens ECU/injection system on HDIs (no problem with Bosch ECU/injection system). Is there a way to tell which is fitted other than by looking at components? Is it random? Is it specific years? or engines ?

  • VW ECU Problems 25 Jun 2003 (Forum)
    Has anybody had any problems with failure of ECUs on VAG 2.0 petrol engines? Our 2001 Beetle 2.0 (115hp) has just had a new one fitted after a one week wait to track down the only ECU in the country! Seems rather poor that such an item can fail after only 2 years/23,000 miles?

  • Ford Galaxy Zetec, petrol, 2009 - Can throttle box problem damage ecu? 19 Apr 2016 (Forum)
    Hello I had engine malfunction messages so took car to the Ford dealer. They said needs new ecu, £1450!. 20 mins after adding new ecu they tell me that new code indicated needs new throttle box, £450! Now should the diagnostic test have shown up the faulty throttle box first and had that been corrected would the ecu have been OK and not needed to be replaced?
  • Fiesta 1.3 and ECU 20 Feb 2004 (Forum)

  • Carlton and ECU problem! 6 Nov 2002 (Forum)
    I own a good automatic '90 Vauxhall Carton 2ltr with genuine 48k on the clock. Thought ECU was faulty but jumping diagnostic output plug reveals a stream of code 12s - code for ECU initialisation (with engine running) and code 12s plus 31s with engine off (31 = no crank rpm!)so in theory - ECU seems OK!

  • Renault Clio II - clio ecu swap 10 Sep 2016 (Forum)
    Can anyone advise here please. I need to do an ECU swap on a clio 1.5dci (delphi)   I can download the old units data with clip and upload to the new unit but this does not transfer the immo coding so it won't start. Renault state that the ecu cant be have this data re-written but I'm hearing that it can be done although no one can tell me how !
  • 2001 VW Golf 1.4 - Resetting ECU? 12 Jun 2015 (Forum)
    Over the years I've seen a few discussions on various forums about resetting ECU's, but they all seem to be guesswork.

  • Hyundai Santa Fe - ecu 15 Mar 2014 (Forum)
    my timing belt adjuster was loose so i put the car in to have a new one fitted. 8 weeks later and (after driving the car into the garage) the list of repairs are.... 4 new valves new camshaft ecu re programmed..... Apparently, as i turned the ignition off, the timing belt must have slipped and caused all of the above?   Any thoughts on how (especially the ecu) this is possible as im baffled and skint
  • Vauxhall Astra G Petrol - ECU Test & Repair required 24 Jun 2013 (Forum)
    Hi all, I need to send off my ecu for test and repair but who to send it to? Any recommendations? I can readily get a 'kit' from ebay but would rather go the cheaper route which is hopefully getting my own fixed. I have replaced ECU some 6 months ago but same fault has occurred again
