AE101 ECU issues

[AceSniper]

I Just found a jap site on the net showing how to replace the two cap's that iv had stuff out and seen stuff out in other ecu's (leak) so just thought Id post it... incase you want to check or have weird issues with your ecu...

is this common in 101's as my friends marino died last year and went it to fail safe caused by condenser or something?

[Mr Revhead]

its common enough. wont happen to all of them. but happens to enough that any auto sparky should have an idea of it

out of 4 ecu's iv opend two had the issue, and they were both pre 93 even tho both ecu versions have them in the same place on the board, cost about 10cent each at dick smith
when it happend to me the fueling was all over the place with foot to the floor it just made emough power to move and not stall, sometimes had to put clutch in an bring up the revs... was real werid also it wouldnt show any ecu faults just random blinks that ment nothing

By the way, it is the condenser which the condenser and the right which problem have the left purchase this time anew. Don't you think?

Yep.... ummm ... what was the question again?

My ae101 did the same thing. I got a guy in Papakura, who fixes amps and car stereo's, to have a look at it. He fixed it for $50, which is alot cheaper than some of the ripoff artist auto electricians up here in Auckland who charge up to $350 for a replacement computer!!!

Better than over 2 grand for a genuine one...
