does anybody know anything about this recall? If it means I can get my ecu replaced for free in warrenty by a dealership, then I may not have to worry about buying an ecu to fix my air pump problem ! its worth a shot

 

Where was that listed?

I did a car fax on my car a while back and it said in the carfax that there was a recall on the ecu for 93 RX7's with certain vin numbers. it said exactly this Recall #SSP39 ENGINE CONTROL UNIT Im gonna give Mazda a call somtime and see if this applies to my car

 

I think this recall was to fix a problem where the engine would occasionally stall when you would let off the gas when the engine wasn't completely warmed up. I had this recall done when I was still running the stock ECU and it did fix that problem for me.

 

They will reprogram your ECU - they will not replace it.

 

The dealership replaced mine, they did not reprogram it.

 

It was the Mazda dealership in San Jose, CA that did and that was 8 years ago though.

 

YEA IT IS.....BUT....i went and called up mazda and asked them for the current recalls....scedualed an oppointment and they gave me a used BROKEN ECU....pluss when i flored it it felt like someone was playin tug-o-war with my car. and so i took it back and they said thay cant reinstall.....once i argued for about 20min. (also they said my car was like that BS.) they reinstalled mine for me, but i had to pay $65.00, and this was about a month ago. but now i think my ECU is going bad (my old one).....so ima have to try another dealership......hope this helps, and good luck with yours, also be sure to check the mechanics date (when ever a mechanic installes somthing he dates it CHECK THE DATE TO BE SURE, MINE WAS DATED IN 98, FAKE MOTHA F****)

 

Yer more evidence (if it were needed) that Mazda dealers should be avoided.

Just buy a used one in the classifieds for $50.

 

ya, i learned that the hard way, obviously. is there a shop that anyone knows of that works on mazdas? preferably in oklahoma, or somewhere near????

 

I have two 5 speed ecu units if you would like one? Let me know we can work on a price.

 

that would be great, but mines a automatic.....wish it was manual tho.

 

man that yellow FD looks hecka tight!

 

the stock ecu isnt reprogamable.

 

Reflash, if you want to be pedantic.

 

its not reflashable. its too old
