Default Ecu problems

Helping a neighbor out and his car wouldn't start.
Gots spark but no fuel
Noticed CEL is solid so I suspected a dead ecu
Got another working p06 ecu and worked for 3 days and ecu somehow is dead again.
Solid CEL again!
So I put my ecu p75 obd1 and started right up. No solid cel
Anyone have any ideas what it is? Tried main relay

Did you ever pulled the code on the CEL? Just because the car doesn't crank/start, you can't assume the ECU is dead.

You should consider finding a friend who is very good with circuit boards to open up your ECU and see if there's something consistently wrong with both of the fried ones. You might have a wiring problem in your car that is blowing ECUs.
