As title, who knows what this ECU is?

I will not be there until the weekend and wanted to get some info ahead of taking it apart in an attempt to identify.

Thanks in advance

Looks like an old weber Alpha ECU, pretty much obsolete these days and was only dealer tunable when new unless you paid more than the ECU for the interface

It looks the same as one I had in a Cosworth YB engined car (an Alpha one as mentioned above?), there were plenty of tuning chips available and must be a load of tuning companies though I didn’t ever have any diagnostic software. Does the car have a Cossie engine?

If it is a Weber Alpha, I'm pretty certain there isn't anyone left in the UK who can do anything with it......other than replace it.

Loads of folk on the Westfield forum swapping them out for modern alternatives.

Going back quite a few years I put an Emerald onto a race car that had an Alpha. Back then, at least Weber could & would tune them...but for a significant fee, and this particular one was old so they'd only entertain replacing it first, and, of course, even after that, the thing was locked so only dealers could get at it.

Pretty dumb business model really.
