I think my ECU is bad...

I pulled off the carpet to ground the wire for the ECU, then i took the cover on it off and on the PCB it is burnt at a few different places.

I think this is why I was having some problems.

I called Mazda and it would be $720!

Should I get a new one, or used or what?!?

thanks

 

hell no, PM icemark, he can probably get you a new one in a few weeks. Well, almost new anyways. I bought one from him last week and I haven't been happier.... well until my tax return check...

 

Check the for sale forum. They seem to be always for sale.

 

how much do you think it would be around???

 

Can I trust a used one??

 

Hey i'm new to the forum and i just bought and 87 gxl which came with some spare parts. Anyway i have a spare 91 ecu if you want it. just email me at Mrober10@mix.wvu.edu. I'll give it to you real cheap

 

Wanna give me the burt one?

I could use it to test a few things with.

 

I'll see about that after I fix my car first.

 

I need advise.....be back to check tomorrow

 

By all means. I'm just trying to get the word out. I hadn't even had the idea to ask for blow ECU's until I saw your post.

FYI, you should be able to trust a used ECU, if it has the same part # and came out of a running car. Just buy it from someone with a decent reputation.
