Hi All,
Urgent advice needed. I drive a Civic SR4 year 95, non-VTEC and the problem is the car can't seem to start for the last 2 days :confused_smile: . My mech has more or less diagnose the problem to be some burnt capacitor or something on the ECU - saw the black mark myself when he dismantle the ECU. Seems like this is causing no fuel signal and the engine check light remains on. In other words, the fuel injectors are not receiving any signal to inject fuel during start up.
Thing is this, he mentioned that there are 2 options:
1. Change the ECU - 1st quote from a halfcut shop was a whopping RM 1000 +-
2. Send back to technician to 'fix' the problem with the ECU by sothering back the burnt portion...which is likely to cost about RM 500+-
I am not too sure which is the best way to go:cry_smile: ..appreciate all sifu's advice...
