I got an old ecu off a mate, it had blown the big cap, so i repaired the trace damages and chucked in new caps.
Also one of the small black IC's was damaged so I replaced that also.
PROBLEM: the ecu will still not start the car.
I took another look at it, and it looks like the CPU has a 'rise' in the center. Upon comparing to all my others, they dont have this.
My question - how common is it for the caps to blow and fry the cpu? Has anyone seen this before?
