This happend to me a few weeks back when i first got the car
its a 1990 7mgte M/T and the car randomly doesnt want to start
when the key is in the "on" position all the dash lights blink besides the CEL light
which means the car isnt getting signal from the ecu
i checked that the dash light works and it does, the ecu has power and a good ground
i have another ecu that i use with a maftpro and the car didnt recognize that either, so its not the ecu and i know 7m ecu's dont go bad
just wonering if other had the same problem
last time this happend i took the ecu out to buy another online but i put the ecu back in to run a few tests and randomly the ecu was recognized and the car started and ran for about a month till yesterday
the ecu was out of the car for almost a day the last time this happend
im going to run a few diagnostic tests today and disconnect the battery to reset the car
Any input is highly appreciated,
Thanks,
Patrick.
