        Are you sure it's a fault in the ECU and not an error code being THROWN by the ECU (e.g., a faulty sensor/actuator detected BY the ECU)? I.e., what symptoms are you chasing? (magic smoke leaking out of one of the controllers would suggest a fault in the controller; most other problems are typically the controller referencing something ELSE that is "wrong")

        Make/model??

          I have done quite well from offering repair services for these in the past, depends a lot on make / model and fault details though, most of the faulty units that have come my way for repair oddly enough down to leaking electrolytic's and corroded pcb's.

                I've done two.
                A 1998 Suburban. Bad caps, no leaks, electrically leaky and dropped in value. Still trying to get paid for that one.

                A 1996 SaaB ECU. Bad solder...

                Excuse me while i do something dangerous


                You must have a sad, sad boring life if you hate on people harmlessly enjoying life with an animal costume.

                Sometimes you need to break shit to fix it.... Thats why my lawnmower doesn't have a deadman switch or engine brake anymore

                Follow the white rabbit.

                  We are positively inconvenienced by a question of such generality as yours. If you have a particular vehicle, or a particular fault your are tracing, perhaps there could be some intelligent suggestions.

                  An ECU is just a small computer, tailored to monitor a number of sensor inputs and respond accordingly. Do not fix that which is not broken.
                  Is it plugged in?
