Hi

My mate had a Chimera and unfortunately his garage got flooded.

His ECU got waterlogged. What should I suggest he do?

New ECU? Repair? If so where from?

Thanks

Steve

Depending on the results of your enquiries I will have a perfectly performing ecu off a 2000 year 450 with a nice chip available in a few weeks time.

Interesting smile Not a decat chip, standard? His car is based in Switzerland.

I presume it will be plug and play? I'm Hoping the water damage hasn't frizzed anything else :/

I see, the ecu I have is off my car. I'm presently changing ecu for a easier mappable system removing the need for the distributor,,, out of choice rather than because I have any real issues with either my car or my original ecu.
My 2000 car was fitted with a cat, ecu works fine,, I also have both resistors to use for either cat or de cat smile
Pm me if your interested. wink

Regards other damage,, it's hard to say, did water reach fuse board etc, hair dryer it all . Change relays etc.

Hopefully someone far more knowledgeable will be along help answer your questions.
Regards Alun

Shedevil, just checked your profile,,, nice car indeed smile
The chip in my ecu was installed by Powers Performance two years ago, it's just a more refined map,
It can be checked to see if it's ok for your needs,
Maybe your ecu is a simple fix, I just thought,,, well I can't use mine anymore so if your in trouble it's an option.
Goodluck smile
