I tore the cover off my ECU and started the car(holding the ECU) I pressed on the circuit board in different spots and wallaah.The car died and the pump relay started clicking, I pressed again in the same spot and the clicking stopped and the pump,pumped up. It then would start. I did this numerous times with the same results. So I removed the ECU and hit the solder gun on all the joints around that area. Reinstalled and tried again. But This time the engine didn't die. NO More Clicky. I sure hope that fixed it... Sure sounds like it did, It also ran smoother . I also tore out the dash to fix Speaker,Speedo,Clock and radio. I helped the speaker now it doesn't rattle so much. Speedo has an issue in the cable, Clock is just retarded,it has a contacts or something and is a pain. Radio is also a pain, the read out or display doesn't always come on but the radio still works.So I never know what station I'm on. I also found the plug for the re-circulatory air vent was unplugged so the switch didn't work. Now it does. Talk about a day off from work just to spend the day on the ZX

I was hoping this thread was about one of these .

On your clock why don't you contact this guy he might help.

Many, many, many times, especially on the ZXT's I find the ECU connector makes poor contact with the pins and simply wiggling or reconnecting solve the issues temporarily. Dielectric grease smeared in the connector pins helps prolong the fix. Ditto for the AFM connector.

You must be really excited! You've posted this in at least four threads.........

THis is not what's happening.The solder joints have failed.THe pins as you call them are "L" shaped.They go thru the case,make a 90 degree turn and land on the circuit board.the solder joint where they attach to the board is what has failed.Have a electronics guy check the joints in your ECU.

Thats a really good find. However, I switched over to Megasquirt II about 5 years ago and all that ECCS stuff is way behind me now. Good to know for the future though.
