Really need some help People. I've got a very ill car.
Let me explain.
I have wired in some leds through relays, which are controlled by switched ignition and also dipped beam +
Wiring is simple and straight forward, and I cant see why it has caused the problem I have, but it must have done somehow.
Basically the fault I have is the engine ecu is now non-responsive. I cannot connect to it through vcds, and now my car wont start. It turns over , but that is it. It is also making other controllers give error codes, but I belive they are all effected because of the engine ecu being a crazy fool.
Though auto scan on vcds gives this '
Address 01: Engine
Cannot be reached
And other controllers are throwing errors up which state
1 Fault Found:
01314 - Engine Control Module
004 - No Signal/Communication
Now, I cannot connect to the ecu through vcds, so I have no way of trying to fix it.
Wiki says
Possible Causes
CAN-Databus Wiring/Connectors from/to Engine Control Module faulty
Fault(s) stored in Engine Control Module
Engine Control Module recently flashed or re-mapped
Possible Solutions
Check CAN-Databus Wiring/Connectors from/to Engine Control Module
Check Measuring Value Blocks (MVB)
Usually Measuring Value Blocks (MVB) 125+ show the current Communication Status
01314 - Engine Control Module: Check DTC Memory
Possible Causes
Fault(s) stored in Engine Control Module
Possible Solutions
Check Engine Control Module for Fault Codes
Special Notes
Engine Control Module stored a Code which influences other Control Modules Functionality.
To clear this Fault Code you will need to correct the Problem in the Engine Control Module first.
I haven't touched any of the wiring to the ecu,and I cant connect to it to check faults shown, so I am ********.
Really need some ideas people, as I am at a loss
I have checked all the basics like fuses etc,but nothing seems wrong. I have also removed the wiring I have done, but it is still the same.
I am hoping that the ecu isnt fried, but that is the only thing I can think it may be, but how it happened, I dont know.
Is the ecu a straight swap? Or will it require programming with either vcds or by dealer? And also quite importantly.....how much for one?
I appreciate any help and suggestions you guys can throw at me, As I have non left atm.
I'm tired and piddled off now, especially as I had to Walk home,which was an hours walk, as I was working on the car at my workplace
