Hey Guys,
Well it's everyone favorite 2 year event in California...smog test. I went in and had it tested but the ECM was throwing a code for something in the EVAP system so it didn't pass. I looked up the code and finished the flow-chart in the owner's manual and apparently I have a bad ECM which is pretty uncommon from what I hear. I then went out and bought a used '97 JDM ECM which is actually really nice but the smog computer couldn't communicate with it so right now I'm kind of up a creek. I've been looking for a used 1998 ITR USDM ECM and can't find a single one. A new one is $700 which I just can't afford right now. Do you guys have any suggestions? Or is anyone in the southern California area (I'm in Thousand Oaks) who would want to let me borrow their ECM for half a day? I really don't know what else to do so any help is greatly appreciated! Thanks.
have you tried resetting the ecm and driving it for a while then take it to get smog my car throws out a code ninety which is an evap problem i am trying to get rid of right now
could you tell me the code it is throwing out. and i looked in my book and i cant find an ECM. could you tell me what that means also i ran into this problem but found out it was a torn hose near my fuel pump.
