I tried to build an ECU to monitor my ECU. I called it OECU, overlord electronic control unit. But the second I turned it on, a warp bubble opened up and a naked cyborg with a shot gun calling me John Conner appeared. Luckily I disconnected it before he could attack me, and everything went back to normal. Moral of the story... Don't build overlord computer units unless you want to bring about the singularity that will destroy human kind. Which you do.... I mean... don't.

I'm guessing that naked terminator wasn't Kristanna Loken from Terminator 3 or you wouldn't have unplugged it. You would have died but gotten an eyeful and probably worth it.

You had me at ECU. Definitely must see TV. BTW I’m still waiting for the $5.00 check you were supposed to send me for the last positive review I posted. Times are tough.

I didn't realize ECUs were so attractive. That's what my next several videos will be about! $5 worth of Doge Coin headed your way.

I had a question I had a used ECM installed in my car 2010 Hyundai sonata after my converter was stolen now my car randomly stalls but there is no codes my mechanic gave up on my car do you think the ECM could be causing this or the converter?

@MikeTheBackyardMechanic 5 месяцев назад

The fact that it is random and there are no code does give me a strong indication it is the ECM. The converter would throw a code - and not stall the car randomly. I hope you have a warranty.

hmm.. I'd have opened the box and looked for discolored parts, bought replacements on Digi-key, and swapped the parts with soldering iron.

@MikeTheBackyardMechanic 5 месяцев назад

The small information I found on PCM DYI made it look like even opening the box was dicey proposition. I don't have enough electronics experience that I would have been confident in doing that.

@dandeclerck6742 5 месяцев назад

not all ECM's control the throttle plate, and you should talk about timing, through the Crank and cam sensors..

I talked TOO much. The Nerd Me part should have been cut down.
