afternoon all,
has anyone ever replaced an ecu with a second hand one ? if so was it o.k. ?
my air bag ecu has burnt out (part no 198674) can only find used ones (at really cheap price) from cars that are being broke for spares,
would like a new one but eurospares tell me that particular one is no longer made,
the super car place in Sheffield have tracked a new one down somewhere in Sweden but it may be silly money as originally were £800
advise I was given was get new but if second hand get one from a car that is same year as mine & not one from a car that the airbags have already gone off from.
thanks.
