Default ecu repairs

Hi all does anyone know of any company that can check and repair a l8?
It was plugged in to a loom with wasted spark fitted but not fitted to ecu (pins not cut)
Cheers in advance

Have you checked the ECU fuses aren't blown? They are under the glovebox.

And is that the only symptom ?

ie are you getting any spark ? Are you sure the fuel pump is capable of working ?

What exactly happened between it working before...and not now ?

I no 100% that this ECU is faulty as a long time back it was put on a standerd car and it did not do a lot . But I can not remember exactly wot it did not do .
I all so would like the no if there is any good ECU repair places that could look at cosworth ECU,s as I all so have a L8 that's faulty

This is the guy who repaired mine

http://www.the-ecu-doctor.co.uk/

had a really weird fault where it would stop firing one injector intermittently. My ecu was also fitted with wasted spark so shouldn't be a problem for him. Mine is a L8
