    Any suggestions on why/how an ECU would break 'all of a sudden'?

    Are the any ways it could be repaired? Flash the rom ect...

    Its a Blitz remanufactured TT man.

    What makes you think it is the ecu that is causing the problem?
    Could also be the loom connector where it plugs into the ecu. I had that problem once. MOved the wires a bit and it came good.

    I know the problem is the ecu.

    new 1 fixed my running on 5 problem. put it in another zed that was fine it ran on 5.

    just to prove it wasnt a fluke put it in another and it ran on 5 until the old ecu was put back in....

    the ecu is ka-put.

    grab a stocker and socket it. then you can get a tune to suit your zed.. problem solved and safer than a blitz too.

    my guess having almost no knowledge of electronics thinks it will probably just be a capacitor or something simple like that .like how half the soarer dashs break and its a 10c fix , you should get it looked at by someone who does that stuff

    blue32zx The answer is 42

    same thing happen to me

    was spewing when my romtune ecu spat the dummy. I replaced it with a stocker piggybacked with a greddy emanage.

    If its totally dead and never runs all 6 then I'd say its most probably a stuffed transistor as they're pretty easy to kill.
