Hello

I have a 94 Del Sol vtec

I been having random issues with the car not starting after it would rain. Now it will not start at all(rain or shine) unless you heat the ecu up with a hair dryer.

I have tested/ re-soldered the main relay and it is working fine.
I found some info about doing the K test - which it passed(I think) 5v @ the map sensor.

I thought it was a caps(they were leaking) so I ordered a cap kit and replaced all 8 caps.

Still needs to be heated to start. Once you get it started it runs fine no issues other than the random speedo flutter.

Is there anyway to save this ecu? I have read(while researching on how to fix it) it is a hard to find nowadays(P30 A00) and I will have to get a chipped ecu to replace it.

The car is all stock and would really like to keep it that way if possible.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Bad pin connection(s) in an ECU connector?

Have you cleaned and tightened the G101 ground on the thermostat housing?

When you exhaust every other troubleshooting step and are about to trash that ECU, remove the PCB from the housing and place it in a pre-heated oven @ 220 degrees for two minutes. Re-installed and test the ECU.

Your problem is the ECU. Either replace it or get it repaired. Good luck!
