To bring this to a close at last, got another fuel injection ECU from an ebay shop (Classic LSE, well done that shop!) and hey presto we're back in business again. I guess we could have got here sooner if we bought the fault code reader but then again we would be down maybe £100 to buy one! Well...

Well I thought an update was in order. I swapped the ignition amplifier & still get check engine light. If ignition is turned off and back on, still get check engine lit. When check engine is lit, fuel pump doesnt run but we get ignition sparks. Occasionally when turning ignition on, check...

Hi 8inaV, no giving up here! I'm not letting a moody ignition system get the better of me! I was looking at ebay for a 14cux & one came up but I was too late, went for £50, it would have been worth having just to plug in & try, maybe keep for the future. We hear that the ignition amps can...

Hello Goneoffroad, thanks for that advice. We have called the local dealer to see if they offer a callout service but dont, only option was to get the car transported to their garage and have them fix it. We decided to have a poke around first incase its something simple (dont laugh please) and...

I looked for the resistor & found 2 taped to the side of the loom sheath up by the coil. I measured resistance of both, one was 6.9k the other 7K, near enough I guess. Both resistors had same wire colours, white/black in, white/blue out but one had a red ring around the white/blue. I measured...

Sometimes fuel pump runs briefly & starting is ok but this is intermittent, so we spotted that something was wrong here, no fuel pressure. I will check the 6k8 resistor this morning with my meter, this is something we havent looked at yet. I dont have another ECU to hand to swap out...

Thanks for that. Its desperation that has driven us to ask for a fault code reader! I have a RAVE manual on CD care of ebay and have gone through some of the electrical checks with my multimeter and found nothing wrong with voltages. What I managed to find was that we got sparks but no fuel...

Hi, anyone know where I can get one of these? Got a '95 LSE 4.2 that refuses to start except for the odd brief moment, then stops with check engine light lit. Checking through we have determined that the fuel pump relay is not being enabled by the ECU in fault condition, but other electrics are...
