1993 Chevy Lumina 3.8L dies while driving. Starts good runs good for 15 miles at most then dies. Will not restart right away. Have to wait 30 mins to an hour then will start up fine and drive fine for another 15 miles and die again. Its not overheating. No check engine light. Have changed fuel pump fuel filter plugs wires. Sensors would trigger check engine light always? Actually its SERVICE ENGINE SOON on this car. Unless there is also a CHECK ENGINE LIGHT thats malfunctioning. that would make sense.

Basically if you have a throttle performance problem linked to a bad computer, you could possibly just maybe experience shifting problems. The first thing to do is check power & ground, then check your communication wires. If a module isn't out-putting the right voltage then it most likely has failed. It's a good idea to run a wave pattern test on speed/timing sensors before replacing them. A lot of mechanics replace sensors without first checking their signal. Even more, mechanics that have been doing this for 40+years replace modules on a whim. Every module fails for different reasons, that's why sometimes they're hard to diagnose. 10 years mechanic here

Excellent video,remember this, the newer your car is the more unlikely scenario that your ECM is bad unless it was in a flood or some catastrophe like that, a lot of ECM's have capacitors in them and capacitors have a lifespan like everything else,some of these capacitors control or "help" the processors make decisions and if they are leaking their guts out (which they do as they age) then you start having problems,they start minor and get worse as they get older and leak some more, this usually happens 10\15 years or so in the life of the car, less these days because the electronics are cheaply made. These problems need to be addressed promptly as the stuff they leak is corrosive to the board and what started as a simple problem will take out a nice chunk of the board overtime and cost you much more in the end,the only way to find out about this is to have a visual look at your ECM,you dont have to be a scientist or some super duper electronics specialist to conduct a visual inspection,it will be screaming at you as soon as you see it,sooooo if you have been replacing things you thought were bad and have checked and double checked everything and you still have issues more than likely its your board.

I have random loss of power on my car when it's warmed up and it loses power even more on these hot summer days, the car is Audi A4 B7 1.9 TDI, I've checked and replaced everything, injectors tested, new turbo, new N75 valve, blanked EGR valve, intake and exhaust clean, new MAF and MAP sensor, new tandem pump, checked vacuum hoses and still I wasn't able to solve the problem, regular maintenance is done even before it should be, engine timing also fine, all filters changed etc. Let me know if replacing the ECU solved your acceleration problems, because I have replacing my ECU on my mind soon...

2009 Kia Sorento, check engine light came on months prior to this: had occasional symptoms of possible clogged catalytic converter or even maybe fuel pump issues, drove it home one night, no new issues, next morning it crunk up but wouldn't go in reverse and acceleration in drive was very minimal and no power. Drove about 4 miles and it cut off, popped hood and seen that the transmission fluid and blown back out the dipstick, added more fluid, cut it off and back on and it was as if nothing had happened at all. Drove about 2 miles to store, got gas, drove about 1/8 of a mile and there was a grinding sound if you will, car cut off and would not start back up (acted like it had a dead battery) I let it roll in neutral to my yard, where it remains. It wouldn't crank back up then, 6/7 hours later I try to crank again and it would as long as I sit in the gas pedal. I check and confirm all fluids are good and leave it be for the night. Next morning it cranks up with no problem at all but now when I put it in gear it won't move, revs up, but in no gear will it move... Any advice on what I have going on here?

I went through this with my 2011 Altima right before Christmas of 21. It took me a couple of weeks to make the educated guess that my ECM was bad. It kept throwing P0705 Shift Range sensor but I pur 2 new ones on it and didn't fix it. I even did the multimeter pin test someone recommended on all 3 and they passed so after much research I got one from a place online (cheaper than going to Nissan) when I got it all installed the car wouldn't run. I called them, they asked me to see if I can find out why it's not running. I said way ahead of you, it's not getting fire to the plugs. So they sent me a shipping label and asked me to send both of mine back so they could clone the original and flash theirs and send it back. When I got them back it worked. I never had another problem until yesterday. I went somewhere and when I went to go home, it's in limp mode again just like last time. When I checked the code, same damn code P0705😡 I still had a new switch and just for aguement sake I tried it and just like last time, I think it screwed my ECM again. It's only been a year and a half since I fixed this and about 4000 miles (my car only has 60 000 miles on it and I bought it new) at this point I'm ready to soak it in gasoline and burn it to the ground, I'm not gonna keep fixing the same problem at the ridiculous expense that frequently. Bought it brand new and these problems are getting ridiculous. I'll NEVER own another Nissan again, I don't give a damn if they paid me to take a truck load of them.

Then i remember getting a high pressure car wash, and water was leaking into the driver compartment. Thats when all the problems began with engine light, reduced power light, and traction control lighs all turning on....This is most likely the problem.

Perfect breakdown for the diagnosis. I have a question regarding electrical diagnosis. Took my Volvo to a few mechanics, all with another outcome. Draining of battery until about 10.33V even just quick stopping for gas, therefore always needing to boost. The computer showed up with pages of codes, though they are incorrect, as everything is properly functioning. Could it be the computer module that is malfunctioning with codes and battery drain, OR is the less than a year ago bought battery defective with a dead cell that causes these malfunctions? The dead cell could also explain why it does not drain to zero, rather 10.33V. My diagnosis has now fallen to this conclusion regarding my Volvo s80 2009. Thank you for any input or comment

Same with my 2014 KIA Optima. Died on me while driving, couldn't accelerate anymore and my car didn't go into limp mode, it just stayed on but couldn't accelerate. I pulled over and tried to start the car, but it wouldn't turn. Come to find my battery blew because we took it to Autozone and they confirmed its 100% screwed. Got a new battery, still didn't solve the issue. Everything in this video happened to me except gear changing, and I'm wondering if the short cirtcuit happened because my battery sensor literally blew off and melted (I discovered it while putting in the new battery.) Taking it to the dealership to see if this falls under the extended lifetime warranty for the engine that you get from getting the KSDS (Knock Sensor Detection Software Update). If it doesn't, maybe ill be lucky and it'll fall under the recall issue for brake fluid leaking into the HECU and causing a FIRE or short circuit, which is a problem many KIA and Hyundai's are facing from 2011~2019 models of all kinds.

My 99 Isuzu Rodeo 3.2L has been having several issues. 1. Hard shifting and it will not shift into overdrive. It actually seems to go back into 2nd when it should go into overdrive. I'm riding 2500-3000rpms going 50mph. It seems if I get up to 70mph and 3500rpms and hold it long enough something lets go finally and then rpms drop and the check transmission light starts flashing. 2. My Rodeo also has an issue with starting then immediately stalling. It used to be every other time I'd start it up. Now it's nearly every time except on cold starts. But warm starts are ridiculous. Occasionally it'll try to start without a single crank, but stalls. And then other times it cranks and cranks and cranks and still won't start until I give it some gas. On these starts the idle is up and down and up and down til it settles between 500 and 1000rpms. On occasion it'll stall out while idling but not driving. That's even on cold starts. It just does whatever it feels like. There's no vacuum leaks that I can find. There are no codes thrown for any of these issues. None. One person did have a scanner tool hooked up that showed a "pending" code for an O2 sensor failure. But now 3. My 4wheeldrive suddenly stopped working too. Doesn't engage, the light doesn't even come on when I hit the button. So do I have a damaged ECM or PCM? Is there a difference? I think my Rodeo's brain is called a PCM. Any suggestions would be fantastic. I'm about to drive this off a cliff with no insurance. That's how frustrated I'm getting.

Was fine for a few weeks and started stalling again. Took it back and he cleaned out the throttle body of carbon build up. Worked fine for 2 weeks then started stalling again and it wouldn't start. Took it to Lexus and they adjusted the throttle and said nothing else is wrong. Still having issues with starting and idle. Could the ECM be bad?

Could be a crank sensor problem

My car wouldn’t shift pass 2nd gear. Had trans rebuild an started happening again. Knock sensors started failing. Finally took it back an they said the ECU is bad, that was the original problem. Now alternator keeps failing. Same 2000 es300

Could you disconnect the electrical connections to check for corrosion and if corroded spray some electrical contact cleaner ?

May I ask i have a 1996 chevy suburban 5.7 k 1500. Starts and runs like new unless its summer time. Turn it off to run in the store and come out and it won't start until the next morning,fires right up then! The fuel pressure is perfect and it has a new distributor,plugs,wires,coolent temp sensor none of wich fixed this issue. NO check engine lights on! In the winter months this problem goes away. Thanks for the advice!?👍👍

Can a weak car battery get a po685 ? I have no symptoms other than occasional check engine light that comes on and clears on its own. I did scan and got the code po685 could it also be a faulty relay in the fuse box?

So i have a 06 town car and the wrench popped up and car stopped i waited a few minutes and had to start it again. Would this be a ecm? Also i do have engine light on that is giving me a o2 sensor code too.

What if my car's symptoms have only occurred while spinning high rpms (only like 5.5k, not redlining at 7-8k) and while attempting to start, and the car acts like brand new a second later? This ECM seems most likely so far in my search. No poor gas mileage, but maybe power/acceleration loss. Sometimes gears can be a bit weird. 2015 hyundai elantra auto tran

2000 Toyota Camry, reverse works fine but drive 2 and L all just rev up and won’t budge. I don’t think the trans is bad as the fluid looks fine and the rpm’s adjust to being put in gear. Just gave out the other day after slipping 1st gear a lot. Damn gf not telling me the cars messed up. Lots of people on the Toyota forums fixed it with a new ecu, replaced the transmission for nothing.

My car is 2015 Ford Fusion SE 2.5 L six speed automatic transmission. It’s sometimes will crank sometimes won’t. Also will die when I do start it. Could be ECM ? Weird thing is that only tire pressure fault light and steering wheel assist fault service required light will turn on. Also why do Auto Zone is able to read codes and OReillys doesn’t?

Engine light came on for a small EVAP leak, it was fixed. Then it came back on for the same thing, the evap was fixed the dealer said my ECM level was low, they updated it, the light came back on same Evap diagnosis, I took it to a different VW dealer they said the same thing, low ECM level so they updated it and two days later today the light comes back on. So I’m just guessing the ECM itself is bad. So replacing it is where I’m Going with it

My truck would not start after it sat for 10 minutes when I turned the key the brake lights on cluster came on but nothing happened. The starter did not work nothing. I reset the ecm and then the truck started right up is my ecm bad? Its also throwing a code that my cat is bad but reset it and didn't get a code until today a week later but I had to reset the ecm to get it started so no idea if it was the same code or another. The truck wouldn't start until I reset the ecm. 1997 f150 4.6

Now, i thought my 07 Ford Focus had an ECM problem. But it's clear it doesn't. Because my car runs and drive's fine, but my cluster is lit up. The OBDII port doesn't work, spedometer doesn't work, all the light's are on. But, the only three thing's working on my instrument cluster are the gas level, seatbelt light, and highbeam light. Nothing else work's. I looked at every single fuse in and outside. All are good. Tried to hook up OBDII reader and it wouldn't connect. It started having this problem after last winter.

No lights on. Car sputtering, rough idle, almost stalls out while stopped, rpms up and down during idle, sluggish acceleration and jerking with acceleration while sputtering. Any ideas?
