Bellhill Garage have a lot of ECUs for sale: http://stores.ebay.co.uk/BELL-HILL-GARA ... d=60678461

If you can get your van to them, I'm sure they'd be happy to let you try it first.

I read on here recently that the overwhelming majority of ECU 'faults' are traced to sensors giving erroneous readings. Remind us again, what are the symptoms and fault codes you are getting?

Most EGR faults are due to clogged passageways. When you clear the codes does the fault come back at key on or when driving? under what conditions?

finger crossed think we might be there now [-o<
but to answers your question it comes on when driving but not under the same conditions which is why it taking the beep to try to sort #-o #-o #-o

Usually the ECU does an electrical check on key on so the circuit should be good. If its coming on 'at random' then it could be a sticky EGR valve, the ECU usually tests the passageways by flicking the EGR open during deceleration and then looking for a change in manifold pressure.

A lot of folk blank or disconnect the EGR valve with no issues, although that is generally on the pre-drive by wire versions.
