Is there any where i can send our Fiesta RS1800 ECU away for repair?

We had the car looked at as it wasnt run right and it turns out its the ECU so i need to either get the one we have here fixed or try and find another ECU

Anyone able to help

I would think its cheaper to find a replacement on ebay?

 

Might be worth asking paulxr2 off xrtwo.com as he has broken one or two lately.

 

Have had a quick look but couldnt find one


Brian

 

Yeah have asked him but he doesnt have one for PATS


Brian

 

Try these people, they may be able to help. We have used them many times and are reliable.

I wouldnt be too quick and blame the ecu as the EEC4 unit is pretty robust.
What are the symptom of the problem ?

 

The car wouldnt start run properly we had it on a compture and that didnt show up anything, it turned out the ECU had some bad earths inside it i belive so they was repaired and the car was fine for a week or so and now it will cut out and then just re start we have been told its a ECU fault


Brian

 

If someone has been inside the ecu then it is probably dead..now !

Its unusual for them just to fail as they more liekly get confused with the wrong information when there are loom or sensor faults.

If you send it away for repair make sure you get a quote first.
I suspect. you will repair or replace it only to find the fault still exists or reappears.

Good luck

 

Whats the code name on the ecu

 

Not sure atm Dave, will be taking the ECU out tomorrow and finding it out, why do you have one


Brian

 

Thanks for the info, we have had a compture on the car which didnt show up any sensor faults so thats why we reckon it could possible be the ECU


Brian

 

i may know of one ,i have sent you a pm

 

Cheer's mate have replied

Clear your inbox brian

 

Have done sorry mate


Brian

 

This is the code on the ECU

94FB-12A650-CC (CULT)

Brian

 

unlucky... that is a rare ecu, can be found in mk5b 130 spec cabs/orions and xr3is though... careful with xr3is as they tended to have been early built and on non pats

 

oh the other option is you could disable the pats (i assume you have a proper alarm an immobaliser) its a case of changing a few wires round at the ecu plug and you can use a pre pats ecu which are much much more common

 

ahh shite forgot about EDIS
to do the above you'd have to wire in an EDIS module as well which is a bit more work, but realistically you could sort it with a Ł15 ecu and an edis module and a bit of wiring

JDmsport (CRSpares@aol.com) almost always has xr3i 130 parts in stock drop him an email

 

Bri,

my mate knows a electronics genius who works for the raf fixing the plane ecu's and stuff,he does a nice sideling in car ecus and they tell me theres so many ecu's that come in with damp in them,they dry loads out and they work fine again when tested so its worth checking its bone dry first which will cost you zero.

also i know camco 88 who can fix ecu's and unlock them,they used to tune escort and fiestas once although now concentrate on just ecus.

HTH

 

Can reccomend camco they did the ecu in my 2i many years ago!

 

nice one fella.

they do other stuff too i shoulda said, heres the website
