My Tamora has been at the local garage for 4 months now for a head job. It is now up and running (running really smoothly, it has never sounded as good, all I need now is permission from the surgeon to drive as I've had back surgery. Hope I can get out once I get in, there again...), but the guy is having problems finding the ECU hook up connector. Is it possible to hook up his mega expensive Bosch analyser to a Tamora? If so where is the connector? Or do TVR have their own system. The garage says "by EC law all cars must be able to connect".
The problem appears to be fault codes coming up and the passenger window motor does not know when to stop and drains the battery. Any help would be great.

Hope all TVR owners have a great year.

If I remember rightly, along with the ABS/Airbag ones, TVR didn't get that EU Memo!!!

Added to that, as I am given to understand for the 'Gris, the ECU is proprietary TVR equipment - therefore no-go outside of TVR dealers/servicing.
