Calling Scottish Surfers

[dee]

I'm on the mooch for a favour, to cut a long story short I have suspicions about the health of the ECU in my truck and was wondering if anyone would be willing to let me try theirs on my truck before I try and source a replacement...

Anyway, mine is a 93 3.0 TD Auto (KZN130)

ECU codes on the side are

1KZ-TE
89661-3D100
1758001312 12V
Denso

Oh I'm in Dundee, NE Scotland btw

[dee]

anyone?

[dee]

think I've found me an ecu for much cheapness, guy is just to check the codes on the ecu in the morning

[KERRSURF]

If you were stuck and willing to travel to Denny you could try mine.

[dee]

Thanks for the offer but the way the truck is running (or not) I reckon I'd use about £50 of diesel to get there and back!!

been reading the workshop manual again and knowing the symptoms I'm pretty sure I'm looking at an ecu fault, I hope

[maxwell-1]

did it turn out to be your ecu that was at fault?

[Ballibeg]

I will be coming through Dundee first week in march sometime, probably Wed 5th on my way to collect some pigs.

I could stop for an hour.

Aye. I'd like to try Berkshires and also have enjoyed, and learnt from his blog, so I decided to put the business his way.

and a very kind offer, I was hoping it would be sorted before the 1st week of march, please. please let it be sorted by then...

i've just got an ecu for my 3lt manual 2nd gen from a nice chap on here,so i will put that in tomorrow and see if it makes things better to,let us know how you get on with yours,regards dan

[dee]

got the ecu today, hopefully pop it on this evening, shouldn't take more than 10 minutes.


you fitted yours yet maxwell?

[yoshie]

Hope it fixes it mate good luck

[maxwell-1]

yes changed mine this morning,sorry to say no better...still getting up the same codes as before!!!!and still running like a sh#t!!

[dee]

well fitted the "new" ecu and.....


I am tentatively optimistic, it now rev's better than it ever has and no check light!

can't take it for a drive right now as the wife is working until 10 and apparently it's frowned upon to leave the kids home alone
