A bit of a long shot this, but does anybody know where i can get a Key 101 encryption board that the eprom chip fit's into on a P8 ecu.
I have an escort cosworth with a P8 that has a collins powerchip, but in the days when tuners didnt want there chips copied mine has a Key 101 encryption board fitted that the chip plugs into so the car will run, but being heavy handed i have broke some pins on the encryption board. I have had some new pins fitted but now the car starts, runs for about a minute then stops and wont start again unless the board (not the ecu)is unplugged then plugged back in again, but then just does the same again. So i am pretty sure there is still a prblem with the encryption board.

 

Perhaps try contacting Collins?

Yep i am going to do that on Tuesday after the hols, i just thought someone might know of another avenue i can go down if Collins cant help.

 

If they cant, we can fix it for you. Would cost about £40.

 

Thanks Stu, i will try Collins on Tuesday if they can't help i will give you lads a bell.
