Dme testing
I have the Dme out of my car(because it does not start)and I am wondering if there is any tests I can run on it while I have it out of the car?
Thanks. <img src="graemlins/beerchug.gif" border="0" alt="[cheers]" /> <img src="graemlins/drink.gif" border="0" alt="[cherrsagai]" />

I assume that the unit was working when you pulled it. I would say that if it was working, then it doesn't need to be tested.
Does anyone know if there is a piece of equipment that tests the ECU? Maybe another product for Danno.

The repairs that I am aware of are to the solder joint on the ECU connector. This is a hard unit to test, it is best to get a working unit and see if it corrects the problem.
One word of caution, if there is a problem with the engine interface; the substitute unit might also fail. It is best to check out the interface signals using the test procedures in the manual before you sub in another unit.
