Thread: WTB: Mk3 VR6 OBD1 ECU

  1. #1

    WTB: Mk3 VR6 OBD1 ECU

    Have attempted to solder a performance chip in, and now won't start. Even with the factory when i put it back in.

    It feels to me like the immobiliser is cutting the engine.

    Any ideas?

    If it's the same ECU it can't be the immobiliser mate.

    You should buy a big magnifying glass and examine all your soldering. Even go to the trouble of continuity checks of each joint to the next point on the board if you can.

    What method did you use for removing the chip? Hot air is the only sensible way to do it, you get all the legs at once.

    Gav,

    I took it to a computer tech. I will take it back in and get them to look it over again. Cheers
