If it is you ECM has indeed been swimming, and If no trader can help with a replacement ECM then I might be able to help out.

Right it now time to get back to my shed and not get stuck inside on such a beautiful day.






Thanks for your help, I'll let you know how I get on.

10.34v is too low the ecu won't try starting at that voltage. Check the battery with a multimeter and if it is 10.3v charge it , change it or jump leads .

Do the headlights flash when trying to start? This is a warning the battery is low.

Don't keep trying to start it if it is as the ecu may go out of sync.

Tom Force tuning is going to clone another ecu for me, and do the remapp too.

Hope this works. And thanks for all your info, I'll keep you posted when I get the ecu back.

Tom is a good guy :-). Be careful though mentioning his great workmanship on here though, some people don't like him.
