My parents have a 96 mk1 punto 75sx 1242cc
Running very rough and a mechanic has diagnosed ecu faliure.
He's said that the replacement and reprogramming would be expensive and not worth doing.
Just wondering what if its diy - able. I'm a confident DIY mechanic, but not done much with ECU's before.
We have both the red and the blue keys for the car.
Not sure of the ecu number at the mo as i'm 200 miles away, but have set my brother on the case when he gets in from work.
If I get a second hand ECU from a scrappers, what do I need with it and how do i go about getting it all set up once it's been swapped.
Can anyone give me a run down on this/ or point me to a source that will.
Many Thanks in advance
Dan
