ECU's which are mounted on the engine or realy close to the enginge are known to get broken. Mostly if the engine get overheated. I see it a lot on Opel and Fiat Punto's. What i do after finish, i mount the ecu on the wall of the car (don't know how to call it in English) and make a new ground point on the chassis. If i got a car with this kind of issue i also test the ECU on the bench. I made a testing cable with OBD and power supply so i can connect it to my diagnose equipment. sometimes it is enough to read flash and eeprom so i can clone the ecu to a new/second hand one. And yes.. the one before you made a total mess of it! Basterds! Once again a great video Luis!

I’m so impressed by your personal dedication to your work. You’re a genuine genius and it’s so wonderful to see the talented and knowledge that you have. My daughter has a 2009 Corsa 1 liter petrol which cut out completely while she was driving to Dublin. I took the car to the local Opel agent who had it for a week, couldn’t fix it because they couldn’t get the cars ecu to “talk” to their equipment. They said that the ecu will need to be replaced at a cost of approximately €500+vat + labour. They charged me €370 for the time which they had spent on the car (achieving nothing) and told me that even with a new ecu there would be additional costs to rectify whatever the problem was that caused the engine to stop. I have just spoken to a local mechanic from Poland, who said that he will source a second hand ecu, reprogram it and should be able to fix the issue for around €250 all in! There is no doubt that “continental” mechanics are prepared to go the extra mile for their customers. Thank you for your posting and great watching and listening to a true expert at work!

I don't know much about this Vauxhall Corsa, but when my 1967 Ford Anglia used to misfiring, it was the points needed cleaning inside the distributor cap and gap set correctly using a feeler gauge, may be that's what you may be you also need to do, and clean the rotor and check all 4 spark plugs, oh and often the condenser in the distributor can go weak and give a weak spark, I hope this helps. Also while at it, lubricate the governor weights underneath the contact plate which controls your ignition advance, and make sure there are no leaks on the vacuum advance capsule. So much for modern cars!

Then, they suggested a new ignition switch and full loom. I told her she should have come to me first. It turned out to be the battery feed to the alternator that spliced to starter motor. Crap design on Vauxhall's part.

[@MokokoMokoko]

In opels or vauxhalls the "F" means no communications with engine ecu. If radio screen would bigger, the range would be saying F/F. Sometimes Ecu protects itself from any shorts. Like brake lamp shorts, any cable shorts. So it turns off the communications. The automatic transmissions has same "F" issue but yours says there is no problem with transmission.

Can you share the name of the eBay seller, I really like the detailed description of the ECU they supplied. Thx for sharing :-)

[@PandaBero83]

The keys are not programmed in the ECU but in the cluster or BSI. The ECU only needs the pincode. VIN isn't importand for starting, only for futrure diagnose it can give troubles. If the ECU need to be 'virgin' you need to read eeprom/flash of the ECU (on the bench) and clear it. There are files out there if you search (Digital Kaos forum are great for that kind of info).

Hello LM Auto Repairs. You make very nice videos! I have a question regarding my 2004 Opel Zafira 1.8 petrol. I have had the car in almost one year now. The car has gone about 208.000 km and i have only driven it for about a 1.000 km. I have changed engine oil and oil filter once. The car has never really run perfectly since I got the car. I have always had the impression that it runs to lean, and have always had bad fuel economy. From the beginning it had problems accelerating out from turns in third gear and almost stalled. After it got warmer it got better but the symptom was always there. Over time the car started loosing more power. While driving on the highway it struggled to keep a steady speed and started shaking around 100 km/h. After the first shaking the first codes appeared. P0170 - fuel trim bank and P0303 - cylinder 3 misfire detected. Sadly i kept driving the car until it got worse and then got codes P0301 and P0304. As a side note it has always had code P1530 - ac cut off relay, but I did not think it had anything to do with the engine performance. I suspected it was due to a bad MAF sensor so i looked up the part at autodoc website, and after typing in my cars registration number as a search method I bought the second cheapest MAF sensor which was from "Johns Autoteile GmbH & Co. KG". Before changing the MAF sensor the car was running very poorly and i suspected it was now in "limp mode" since i could not rev it above 2-3.000 rpm and only drive it very slow. But after changing the new MAF sensor I have started having trouble starting the car and have only been able to start it once with very poor idle and limited revs. before shutting down. The car cranks and will almost start but fails every time now. I have videos of it here: kzbin.info/aero/PLYUcU-L47l0AU_CSsXgR3RhFO4kZqES2z While fiddling with the car a lot I have noticed that some bolts have been missing and some hoses where not connected probably to the throttle body. It is like the previous owner have tried finding the error before me and did a sluggish job putting it back together. The battery is new and I do have spark. I can hear the fuel pump running and have changed the fuel filter. There is also fuel pressure on the fuel rail since fuel squirts out when pressing the schrader valve on the fuel line. I have cleaned and changed the throttle body to a new second hand one. I have also cleaned the little blow back hole in the throttle body. I can not seem to find any air leaks. Next to the air filter there is what i believe is a solenoid valve for the fuel tank? I have tried taking it of and can not blow air trough it in either direction. I am not sure if this is good or bad. I have not tried changing the cam- or crankshaft sensor yet. I have also checked that the ECU has ground connection. In a attempt to restart the ECU I have cut of the battery from the car and deleted all the codes. The only code i get now is P1530 - ac cut off relay. Do I need to reprogram the ECU for the newly installed MAF sensor in order to get the car to start again? Best regards Nikolo from Denmark.

[@LMAutoRepairs]

Hi No... it might be some adaptations to reset for the new MAF... but not all engines require that... that said, that is your first mistake... aftermarket parts... Something like that buy genuine... or you might be chasing your own tail... Providing everything you said is accurate, I would check compression next... Hope that helps...

I really enjoy the videos and learning about car electronics but the problem I have is whoever I phone in the ecu repair world dont want to give any information out to the general public, what I want to learn how to do is read ecu chips off the car, im sure ive seen you remove chips from ecu and put them on a piece of equipment and read the information from the chip, so my question is what is the name of the chip reading equipment and where would I find it to buy? Thanks very much and I would really appreciate your knowledge. Cheers Andy

[@LMAutoRepairs]

There is loads of different ones out there... And there is not such thing as one fits all... What I mean is, you will have to invest in different tools to read different chips... X-prog is one, Xhorse another one... just Google it.... Hope that helps... Thank you for watching and for your comment!

Hi I got the same engine z14xep on my Astra H 1.4 2004. I have a problem on a uphill I can't start driving it feels like I don't have torque there is none error codes I've done the pedal test and had to a work shop they don't have a clue whats going on. Do you know whats going on they told me I need a chain replacement cuz it rattles but I don't think it matters with speed?

Oh very helpful video excellent work👍 Any chance you could fix mine ?? I have Corsa Sxi 1.2 2014, all fine until the other day when it wouldn’t start, no lights on the dash, nothing ! I know it’s not a flat battery as it wouldn’t jump start. The next day it started and all worked perfectly 🤷🏼‍♂️ From then the speedo, rev counter, fuel gauge and indicators lights on the instrument cluster haven’t been working properly and have an F by the mileage! Now they have stopped working completely and the car won’t start. Any idea ? Thanks.

[@LMAutoRepairs]

Is an automatic? 👍👍👍

[@user-uw9ys2rf1k]

No it’s a manual

13:20 sometimes is better to send the f car back and tell the owner to tow it to the Butcher to make it back as it was. And maybe bring it back, maybe.

[@LMAutoRepairs]

🤣 I should do that... really should... 👍👍👍

[@liviu2004]

49:00 this car has a terminal chain and bad map sensor. 101 kpa with engine running? Maybe massive air leak look at the low oxygen sensors 1&2.
