Ok, so my buddy has an ecu out of a 91 DSM that was in his newest purchase 986/1000.
The guy that he got it from had said it had a remaned ecu that he bought through a local parts store. He took it out to throw into his eclipse, and the car ran fine, until he mounted the case and it grounded out. After that, it ran on 2 cylinders. As soon as he un mounted it, it ran fine again.
I told him to open the case and see if there was any wires or what not on the back of the board from a repair, and sure enough there was. Well it was hitting, but after a little modifying to the case, it cleared. He put it back together, and it did the exact same thing. When its unmounted, it runs fine, as soon as it is grounded, it kills 2 cylinders.
So it dosen't seem to be the issue as far as the clerance in the case, what the hell?
Any thoughts guy?
