ECU Fault

Post by mo_bay »

Hi,

Just thought to share this with you guys.

Few days ago my Rocco R failed to start at all. Instrument clusters showing all lights as normal. No cranking at all. Battery is OK replaced recently. Toed the car to the dealer as it is still under warranty. Few days later, they suspected a failure of the ECU!! and contemplating a new ECU. They need to order a unit from Germany which for UAE clients will take two weeks at least. I spoke to them yesterday and they have discovered a faulty relay which feeds the ECU and after replacing it the car started. I am not sure about the relay and the dealer chose not to share any info with me. I am not sure if the relay will pack up again or why it failed. :? Hopefully I will pick up the car today but wonder if this relay will let me down again any time in the future.

Any one had any experience similar to this?

Regards

Maher
