Anyone else see the new ad on page 32 of this October’s issue of Panorama? Soecialized ECU Repair.
Website indicates they can repair L-Jet ECUs # 100,103,104,111! Will give them a call; my backup unit is a bit wonky and would like to have a good-working spare. Will give them a call. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) |

Have checked with them twice in the past; they said they can’t. Maybe changed (?). Fortunately I have another good, tested spare. |

I will also take a moment to thank Jeff for all the work he does just out of the goodness of his heart. His website is a treasure trove of resources, not to mention the LE registry.
I haven't used ECU Doctors (yet) but I checked their website out a while back and they charge a flat rate of $199 for diagnosis and if the ECU is defective that charge will count towards the $499 repair cost. If anyone here ever uses them it would be nice to hear how things went. |
