ECU help...
Happy to be a new member -- have put a proud 85k on my Civic as a commuter car. Up until now, have spent nearly nothing on the car other than maintenance.
But, apparently, my alternator has fried my ECU. Dealer wants 900 to install one, and I'm not quite willing to part ways with cash that easy.
What do I do now? It's a 2001 4dr DX, auto, SOHC. My service advisor gave me the part number, but I left it on my desk at work. I know it was a a PLM ecu. Can I use any ecu with PLM in the middle? Do I need to make sure it's for an auto (5 for second to last character)? Does year matter? Argh!
Thanks in advance,
Edward
