ECM/ECU repairing services (6 months warranty)

The ECM/ECU is your car's main computer, is one of the most important components found on virtually all modern vehicles. The ECM/ECU takes the information from the engine's various sensors, and uses that information to calculate and tune engine spark and fuel for maximum power and efficiency.

When the ECU has any issues, it can cause all sorts of problems with the vehicle, and in some cases even render it undriveable.

Symptoms of a bad or failing engine control unit (ECU):

• Your engine is stalling or misfiring. Okay, this isn’t exactly subtle. But it does indicate problems with your engine timing, which is controlled by your ECM.
• Decreased performance. If your car suddenly struggles to go up hills or accelerate down an entrance ramp, it’s possible that your ECM is to blame.
• Lowered fuel efficiency. Your ECM is partially responsible for controlling your vehicle’s fuel to air ratio. Changing this ratio will cause your gas mileage to suffer.
• Your check engine light is on. This is a weird one, since just about anything can cause your check engine light to come on. It’s worth having the code read regardless, since something is causing the light to activate.
