General Discussion / Re: ECU repair

I think the problem lies in the wiring from the knock sensor to the ECU. Apparently its a shielded wire and the insulation may break down due to heat..

I could be wrong tho, it happens occasionally..

Geez, I dunno about that, Brock...I'm a bit rusty when it comes to welding...  :popcorn

Even Rusty can weld better than that,,

Actually Stevie Wonder can weld better than that.

Just back home from the shop. saw a stoopid Toy Yoda driver jump the lights, and almost collided with driver on a green light. Green light driver hit the brakes, then turned and followed the idiot.
WAS AN UNMARKED CAR, PULLED THE IDIOT OVER WITHIN 50 METRES!
Instant karma.

They look home made, and by some one who does shitty welding short videos....  Even I can weld better than that. Oh well, black paint hides that..

Definitely home made, Brock, and yes, the paint makes it all look better.

He only had an angle grinder to cut them and clean them up, too. No hacksaw or files tidy them up with.

I replaced the cables going to the Knock sensors to no effect, then changed the ECU. The F1 problem went away for about 6 months, then came back on my first leg of my 'round OZ trip. I think I should probably have changed the knock sensors as well, but I havent seen any reports of anyone actually solving the problem for good.
I believe the ECU's are covered in a potting compound, so cant really be repaired. I was going to have a look at fixing my old one, but lent it to someone in this group and they never returned it.
