Next on my list.
The passenger side front central locking doesn't work.
How do I identify the problem?
sticky knob (steady... ) or a Servo or another ECU -bloody car has 100's of them !

A quick thought...

If the ECU brain is fitted but is blank, does the car reprogram it? and if so then I 'spose the original error codes will go to the new ECU, which can then be fixed? Sort of obvious as Im writing this, but can some one confirm please?

Borrow the deposit and then rent it out as serviced accommodation. That's your pension pot sorted.

As a recent member but a long time owner I know how hard it is to keep the old bus. Torn by my head ruling over my heart but luckily space on my driveway isn't a problem and so my heart won.
I go to many classic car rallys and Im often told that Omegas will soon become classics. But apart from that, they are such great cars.

I was stuck with what to do with it when the ECU died. I spent months looking for a solution and then I found you guys.
I cant wait to get it back on the road and hopefully keep it there.

My vote is, if you can, keep it. You'll miss it when its gone.

Hi Omegod

yes I do want to take you up on your offer. Just that its the weekend... I'll pm you with details tomorrow.

Thanks for all your help.

ps quick fik fried the ECU but denied it. The engine barely started and I limped to another garage who said that the codes could not be cleared (some thing about mass air flow thingy? no idea tbh) any way sent the ECU off to a pukka company to get it fixed but they said it was fried. So Im relying on people telling me whats going on. Im obv no expert and maybe a bit gullible. I found you guys by accident and within a coupe of hours Omegod gave me a sensible and cheaper solution.
Thanks to all.
