Re: Frusterated

ECU could very well be a culprit.

Re: Frusterated

the ECU is behind the radio. jus pop of the carpet on both sides of the console, and there are 4 screws that hold it in i believe. 2 on each side. jus undo the screws and unplug the wire harness and it should slide right off. once you get it off take out the 4 screws that hold the top on, and remove the top. then check the capacitors for leakage

Re: Frusterated

Check carefully, there could only be a little bit leaking, it looks like brown slime really, do a search on www.stealth316.com and they have some pictures of leaking capacitors on our ecu. very common problem. otherwise you could check your MFI relay but those dont go out as often as the ecu's
