WANTED - v6 ABS/ECU unit
« on: 04 November 2015, 23:49:55 »

I think i need to go down the route of finding a abs/ecu unit, as jumpy speedo still hasnt resolved.
Think read somewhere they have to be from similar vehicles, so that would be a 3.2.
So if anyone has any lying about eating dust, throw it over to me.  :y

Yep, everything else doesn't matter, but engine and gearbox have to be the same, Ive always been led to believe.  :)

Maybe talking out the top of my head....but I put a 3.0ltr one on my 2.5 estate, and TB programmed it down. However, the part numbers matched.
So, this may apply to you ???

Oh, you can Tech2 any(?maybe not any, but most) ABS ECU to work..because it needs programming to your specific car, because the main ECU and the ABS ECU talk to each other blah blah....  but the secret trick (which isn't a secret, really) is just get one with the same engine and 'box and the car won't know any different.  :)

As far as I'm aware... only issue would be for instance, such as myself. I need a ABS ECU from a pre-MFL car, because the Traction control system changed onn MFL cars, to a two-channel system, not the single 'cut the power' setup of my car.

Did it on a mates car (MFL) years back, went in the scrappy, popped one out, banged it in, car was sorted immediately, no issues.  :)

Given the amount of 3.2s out there, I'd hope his search won't be too long.  :)

Thats fine guys, glad for all the input.
Doubt i can see any part numbers, so can only go on by 3.2 then. Literally looked on fleabay 2.5/2.6 ones are priced from £30-50. Theres only 1 for a 3.2 and that more than triple the price at £175.

They are not easy to see...but if you can get a bit of rag in there and give it a bit of a clean on top, then use a torch, you should be able to see the numbers :y

2.6 and 3.2 should be interchangeable  :y

But you really need the part number off yours to cross check that you're not being fobbed off with a 2.5/3.0 one... :y

Had a look at the unit and grabbed these numbers from it? 09 156 806/0265 220 455
So would these numbers be the same on the ecu stuck on the side (black bit), or would it be completely different?

Also  on the front in the black plastic is PBT-GF -30     There is also a yellow sticker label that says WQ

I dont mind, could collect from you. Only thing thats crossing my mind is how important is it for the part numbers to match? Or is it more important that it comes off from the same spec/engine vehicle which matters more. If someone can advise on this can go from there Al.  :y
