Hi
This car came to me with a misfiring on cylinder 2 and 4...
This clearly, after someone had already swapped coils, injectors...
After diagnosed the issue, things did not went as planned... but got there in the end!....
Follow me on this video to find out what was the problem and how to resolve it.
Video for programming the used ECU:

Hope you enjoy the video.
Any questions or comments put them below.
Like always, thank you for watching!
I'm having this problem. Had it looked into and was advised it's an ECU problem. Had the injector resistance measured and it's 9.1 ohms, so similar to yours.
Anyway, I sent the ECU away for repair, it worked initially for a few miles, but now the problem has returned.
At a loss on what to do now. No one seems to be able to diagnose the issue with confidence, and due to the rubbish circuit design even if I replace the injector and refix the ECU (if it's fried again), it might break again if there's also an intermittent short in the wiring.
Think I'm just going to part exchange the car for whatever I can get. Which is such a shame as it's been reliable up to now and is a great car 😢
At least you don't have people give you a part with a different part number inside the shell, drove me crazy for 2 hours until I oped the part and see the difference. Drove me nuts and learned a big lesson.
😅
That's definitely worse...
I had one of these to do. Misfire on cylinder 2 , scope showed no control signal from ECU and inspection showed blown Mosfet. Fitted a used ECU and all was good for a few days, then misfire came back. Further investigation showed actual cause was a shorted injector that was killing the Mosfets.
👍👍👍
I was wondering if the injector resistance had been checked, thought maybe I missed that part.

it's amazing how you quickly narrow the problems down to just 2 or 3 possibilities. Your experience of buying used parts is a big problem for me we have been selling used Peugeot and Citroen parts for 12 years now unlike most breakers we concentrate on 1 car at a time we go over the full car before stripping it if in doubt about any part it goes in the bin the bad guys are making life difficult for the good guys instead of looking on eBay for a bargain have a go to for different things you can trust
👍👍👍
Great job Louis, i see myself in this situation with scrapyard parts.. people will do anything not to return the money on a faulty part.
Indeed...
👍👍👍
I had same problem thanks to you
I bought ECU kit changed it job done
😊
👍👍👍
If I were the customer I wouldn't mind I would just be happy it's fixed no matter what it costs because I'd know you do a good job
👍👍👍
Always learn a lot from your videos..You probably saved the customer a few £ and the fact the ECU was faulty was the sellers fault would have happened to the customer just the same. If he had gone to honda £15 would have been the least of their worries
😊
True...
👍👍👍
Spot on Luis. I am wondering whether the ECU seller (or someone further up the line) decided to scrap the donor car due to a misfire that persisted after replacing the coil packs, thinking it was something mechanical. They should have brought the car to you :D
Also, fully agree on the new used parts policy. Let returning faulty parts to the seller be the customer's problem. You are a tech not a dispatcher.
Wouldn't surprise me the the ecu came indeed from a scrapped car suffering from the same issue...
👍👍👍
Great video👍
I know how it feels when opening these Honda ECU's, the glue or RTV they use is concrete hard & a little wrong angle can damage the circuit board easily, very critical😉
Thanks for sharing Bro, Great work Stay Safe👍
☺
Indeed...
👍👍👍
well done, you will get another and hopefully recover a little of what you lost, good experience 🤗🤞
😊
Absolutely!
👍👍👍
Great video Luis. I anyway don't buy pieces from the breaker myself. I let the client deal with that hassle just like I do not buy the cheapest spare parts available. 😂I like to sleep in peace.
😋
I started doing the same around this time... with a few exceptions only...
It is indeed less hassle... even more for me doing this as a part-time...

But the question is, what kills the transistors? Could it be the injector short circuit? The transistor usually would not go out on its own.
But strange is, the other ecu had most likely the same problem, from 4 identical channels the same 2 are faulty on two ecus. Looks there is something in the car harness so it tends to make intermittent shorts on the same wires? The lower resistance of the one injector could be a clue - isn't it on its way out (shorted turns in its winding,...)?
Maybe a bad factory design with the wiring loom and shorts to ground, injectors, or a bad design of ecu pcb, poor heat disipation of mosfets or wrong calculation of amp/ma switching output power..
The same type of transistors fail all the time in laptops. Just manufacturers using low quality parts IMO.
I've done a few of these with the same faults. A used perfect ECU or perfect repaired ECU will still fail after a while. The injectors cause it. Don't get me wrong, the transistors in the ECU aren't up to the job to start with, couple that with injectors that have some aged coils in them that have shorts between the windings, not dead shorts but enough to increase current draw while still working and you will have a repair that will be back. Always put new injectors in.
😊
So far still going...😋
Will see what happens...
👍👍👍
@@LMAutoRepairs Hopefully mate. A few do survive 👍
Thanks luis, another great vid. They looked like the same type of mosfets that would be used in a laptop
Indeed...

hi luis do you do repairs by post?
Not really...
I like to test what I repair... bit tricky to do it by post...
👍👍👍
There's an entire batch from 2013 to 2015 for ford Ka, of faulty ECU coil drivers, you buy a brand new ECU and still have your misfire,. Third party companies are doing a better job of replacing the drivers now, this issue made my own Ka unfixable at the time, but luckily became the dealers problem
Have not had that one... yet...😋
👍👍👍
Hi
The probability of two transistors failing at once is infinitely small. Makes me think something else causing that problem. A second ECU with same problem... I guess manufacturing defect
Thank you my friend.
😊
👍👍👍
Another great video. Aliexpress is the best pleace for shopping :) must be patient and order in advance a pack each most common eeprom's, drivers, transistors and mosfet. There is hundreds of types but in small amount isn't expensive. It's always took time to get UK, no different to Poland, top record was 4 months, I thorough someone walking with the parcel across China :) . In real its no chance to buy most specific elektronics even online in UK or EU. Always from China, or keep a pallet of motherboards on the loft from old computers:) bootfair every Sundays Louis :) :)
😅
Yes... every electronic devices I throw away, I always dismantle them and keep the boards... 👍👍👍
hello just wonder where you located as im facing the same problem with P0303 code :(
You are full of knowledge I wish I had that.how can I learn this staff?
Self taught...
Learning as I go along...😋
Thank you for watching and for your comment!
👍👍👍
Great job and yes yea are right about used parts put new parts can be broke too 🤯
🤣
That's also true...
😋
I'd appreciate your opinion I had pp2000 for a good few years then 3ish years ago it gave up and having a snap on around I didn't sort it out it was a good tool painfully slow but good I'd like to get the latest version and cable looking on eBay I'm unsure I've been told it works great if it's on ssd
the discoloration did show . are there a triac due to the voltage spikes from the injector
Thanks Luis excellent, ur da best in that,,👌

Hi there Luis my Honda Jazz,, topdon OBD2 says error in communicating with,ECU,,car was driving no prob,,key light flashing and engine light on ,, any suggestions,,,.????
Well, check the basics, powers grounds and communications at the ecu plug...
If all good, could be a faulty ecu...
Thanks Luis,, I've checked all ,, I've got 5vlt reference at all except for at all 8 pencil coils only 2.2vlts ,,, scan tool says error communicating with ECU,,??? Thanks 🙏
Look, if the tool is not able to communicate with the engine ecu, you either have a power issue, voltage or ground missing or weak, a communication problem, shorted can lines, or broken, etc... or, you have a bad module...
Usually there is not much more to it...
It could be the tool, if you have the possibility, try to scan it with a different scan tool, if the same problem, then as above...
👍
Great job ...you are the best man .

Heyy Luis, it s Sunday and still waiting for a new video 🙋♂️
👍👍👍
Just posted it...
Hey luis, ive got a 2002 1.2 jazz and im having problems like this. The car loses power for a split second and comes back on and during this the engine light flashes. But there is not permanent engine light. Checked with diagnostic tool and no codes come up. So i took it to two mechanics and they told me problem is electrical. And electrician told me its ecu. But could it be the ecu when no codes show up. As in ur case u atleast had some codes come up.
Anything is possible...😋
It is difficult to tell without proper checking...
👍👍👍
Great Job as Always louis.
😊
Thanks!

Thank you for the useful video. Please Question. Citroen and Peugeot 2004 . Cranking but not starting. Tow cars they have the same fault. What the reason to read the ecu fault but can't delete it ?!
Immo ?
If you can't delete a fault, usually means that the fault is presente, so unless you repair the problem the fault will stay logged in the ecu...
👍👍👍
My brother, I have a Honda Jazz automatic 2003, while driving, the rpm when it reaches 3, the rpm counter rises with a strong hum and the gear slips, and I have a p1887 code. I replaced the speed sensor and replaced the solenoid valve, but to no avail. Please help. Where is the problem?
Hi there,
my jazz 2012 EXL have the same problem when i am driving 70mph for sport mode.
cylinder 2 was misfire, i inspected that cylinder 2 injector was fail (0 ohm). i replace it and the p0202 p0302 come continue
Check that the ecu is actually pulsing...

@@LMAutoRepairs i opened the ECU and use the DMM with diod mode to confirmed transistor no. 2 was dead.

Great job as always!
In your opinion, is it better to get a bulb test light instead of LED ? On one hand it loads the circuit, on the other hand can it damage something (for example, when testing signal wires) ?
Hi
They both have their correct use... As far as you used them on the correct circumstances, should be ok!
👍👍👍
@@LMAutoRepairs Thanks!
why are honda building products to such fine running tolerances to failure a slight upgrade in driver spec would make there cars more reliable as 2 out of three ecu s you had the same fault the injectors was only tested not replaced what caused the fault to no 2 and no 4 x 2 ecu s again thanks for the vid louis
Cutting/reduce production costs I guess...
Or, just a bad design...
🤷♂️
I have similar problem one cylinder misfire but no ecu faults everything was checked coils spark plugs injectors idle rpms 650 and misfire only happening when accelerating from 2500rpms

My car is Honda Jazz 1.3, petrol. My car is facing problem with P300, P302, P303 (Engine check light blink is the only symptoms I notice) for about 1.5 months. Recently, I changed 6 ignition coils out of 8 and 8 spark plugs. Despite, when the gear is shifted to 3rd or 4th or 5th, the engine check light is blinked. Apart from this, there is no other problem. Could you suggest me what to do to solve this? My mechanic is quite unsure why this is happening! Now, he is saying it may be due to injector problem.
It might helps...

Hi my dear friend great job 👌

Those transistors look brown in the middle and left one
Hi mate i have misfire on cylinder 2 and 3
Changed coils and spark plugs but no luck, car misfiring when could, when worm cars idling perfect, but when i accelerate starts misfiring
When i checked live data on ckp sensor no reading at all 0 reading changed the sensor no luck, friend said could be faulty ecu, any idea thanks
Could be a faulty ecu indeed...
But you need to do some measurements rather than just replace parts...
Check wiring, check that the ecu is pulsing the coils and injectors...
Check also injectors, ensure that ars working fine...
The no reading on the ckp is strange... could be the tool you are using though...
Any codes for the ckp sensor?
👍👍👍
👍👍👍
@@LMAutoRepairs hi mate thanks for replying
No codes for ckp, only p0302 p0303
P0300 engine check light some times flashing sometimes steady

Hi there I am wondering if you can shed light on this where so many others fail. Simple question. Renault Captur 1.5 dci when key is in card reader and dash on, should the injectors read 12v or 4.7 as they do?
Hi
I am working nights... just know was going through the messages...
Is that the piezo injectors?
If it is should have no voltage at ignition on... as far as I am aware... as they are high voltage...
Can you scope them while cranking?
@@LMAutoRepairs This is Renault Captur no start after stop start engaged at traffic lights. Fuel pump is merely a relay driven affair via ECM. ECM grounding the power going through relay and on comes the pump. Yet this car 1.5 dci diesel does not start. no low pressure diesel coming out pipe from fuel filter yet at start momentarily you see volt drop to 10v on feed to motor. Injectors you see they are at 4.7v and stay at that through cranking. Ground side stays at that too. No grounding of them. So ECM likely I think to be faulty. checking powers and grounds and signal wires next. scope on data sheet from haunts workshop data shows whilst engine running 12v for the injectors. But at crank should they show 4.7?
@@jamesbarratt593
I guess that the strategy is if the fuel rail pressure is too low, the ecu will not fire the injectors... what is the pressure at the rail during crank?
I guess is low, if you have no fuel on the low pressure side...
@@LMAutoRepairs well I did take a horse syringe full of diesel. Injected to high pressure fuel pump and tried cranking. Diesel not being sucked through. Im going to remove the fuel pump under back seat and test it with power probe. Im sure it works. We shall see just remember zero fault codes saying low fuel rail pressure.
@@jamesbarratt593
But check live data...
That's always more intuitive than the codes alone... 😊
Where your location please

Why not take the good transistors from the faulty second hand ECU and replace them in the original car's ECU?
And thus avoiding the hassle with sending it back and losing money on postage and looking for another spare ECU, and finishind the car in a shorter timeframe.
Since it got a spare second hand ECU anyway, what's the difference? I'd say the second second-hand ECU is prone to failing the same way the other ones did, but might do it quicker than one with replaced transistors.
Yes... was a possibility...
👍👍👍
a ticking time bomb how long would those components last as they are from same batch ?
@@jackiemay9471 I answered that in my comment. How do you know (and can you be REALLY sure about this) that the second second-hand ECU doesn't have the same components from the same faulty batch? ...
@@guest9169 the two faulty ecu s had chips fail from batches threres a chance the last one may have come from a batch before or after less likely to fail i would have put the decision to the owner of the car as i would not warranty unless new you could end up with a boomarang
You don't...
I guess you replace them and hope they don't fail...
Only two have failed on the original, and two on the other one... so, the other two that didn't fail might last...

Any idee
A few things popped into my head...
The EGR replacement you used, genuine or aftermarket?
Have you checked wiring, and voltages at the plug?
Egr original and yes I checked the wires all good, somebody told me is the ecu need to resoft I don’t no, if you want sent you the error but I don’t no where to send
End this error make engine in limp mode ? No power ?
OK... Have you measured powers and grounds at the EGR?
