Now going to try Al thanks

[Toledodude1973]

It will unlock doors/lock from outside but not when key is in ignition?

[Toledodude1973]

Just spoke to newly "GOD STATUS" essex big al and after putting doner chip in my key ,along with transponder around ignition barrel,and 3.2 ECU in place ,i locked/unlocked doors from outside and tried again to start and it started with no warning lights. It revs normally ,surging a little but will replace ecu with 2.6.
I cant thank all you oofers enough particularly Essex Al,Albitz,Lazydocker,SJC,Twiglet,Symes,Robg and many others this forum really pulled in and i imagine this is why it was originally created so pleased hope it keeps going!

I think this is the first time we've ever seen one of these ECUs fail.

I think this is the first time we've ever seen one of these ECUs fail.

Ah, I work with computers so I don't trust them as far as I could throw one!

Odd one though, eh?

There's a bit of a difference between what we'd normally call a computer and an ECU, though (especially when it comes to the stability of the software!).

Sounds to me like the ECU has perhaps suffered a solder joint failure around the pin that drives the engine relay, or some other component in that signal path.
