ECM protection

JohnnyCrash · Mar 8, 2014

How well protected are the ECM units?

I was removing the lid and dropped a screw driver and it bridged the + to the body of the ECM can see a very light burn on the metal

Now engine will not start, is it fried?

Playing with the ECM with the battery connected is a little silly don't you think?

Nanocom will sort it. New one just needs reading and security code writing to BECM. (Syncing).

Ok will give you a shout once bought a new one if I can't figure it out

Thanks Tony

Ps: changed crank sensor and was a little better when cold but once warm was the same erratic idle and cuts out, so thinking deffo FIP issue

Thanks

I suspect I may have damp as the drivers side mat was wet and the passenger side was dry :-/ been off the road and not used for a while now so either rain (was heavy here yesterday) or o-rings (joy)

Will have to get under the seat and have a look :-(

But not if a recent driver was known to have bladder problems.

You may of spiked it. If you can't get any diagnostics to read it, give me a shout as we can indeed repair them.
