It must still be in the shop?

 

When this is a continuation of the same issue we like to keep it in one thread. This allows future searches to detail each step rather than jumping from thread to thread to find what the results were.

Merging this with the prior thread.

 

Been in the shop for about a month now,they say its Probly the computer because its not responding to the key and not telling the fuel pump to cut and stay on

 

That would be a fun project to work on, I wish it was close.

 

Yea tell me about it,they said they still tracking wires,im still thinking it has to do with it when we bot the lower ball joint and hit the ground hard then it been giving us problems since' then

 

I'd know for sure if it was the ecu, cause I'd put in a known good one, after checking everything else out first.
If they ever find the problem I bet it is something simple and over looked. Or just not tested correctly.

 

So is it best to get another used ecu? Do you have to get the matching key from same car as ecu??? Does the ecu have to be flashed the it be ready to installed?

 

Gen 1 is all plug n play. The locks recognize the keys just old normal stuff. The remote is done by the remote ecu in the trunk. Yeah try a KNOWN good ecu. And NO its not best to get another USED ecu, it has to be known to work good, like out of a car that is running good. The only thing important is that the ecu is for a TRAC or NON TRAC what is yours?

OH and did the shop check for the ignition signals from cam and crank sensors? Remember it shut off while driving, the ecu needs that signal to keep fuel pump running.

 

Seems basic, but did you check the battery cables? A loose cable will give you those problems.

 

how would i know if my car us trac or none trac? So whatever car i get it from has to be the same correct? So just need the computer.in the front not in the trunk right

 

Trac will have a button just above and to the left of the ash / cash tray. ECU is under the glove box.
Anything from trunk is an option, nothing there other than a gas tank that is for engine related stuff.

 

Ok i got a call from the shop finally this morning and basically said it was the key? Something about the mobilizer? or immobilizer? In the key was bad he said i need a new key, does this makes sense guys for my situation? So if i got a new key mad it will crank right up??

 

Lol. Does a 92 LS have a immobilizer?

 

no, they don't.

in the US market, at least.

 

So wtf man lol so getting a new key is not the solution then? No mobilizer??? Huh what so the shop full of ish then! Im so fed up with this car,mite go to the junkyard
