I have a blown Ecu on my 2010 jetta. I pulled lot of wiring out checking it all for shorts before I decided to open up the ECU casing. Inside in the corner was an obvious blown diode or something. The diode was loose and floating about after I wiped the burn off it.
Mould or mildew was on the inside of the casing pointing to moisture ingress.
Can it be repaired ?
I can see others aroind tge world for sale last two letters in the part number different would they work?
Not quoted VW replacement yet but expect it to be scary seeing they have to recode as such too.
It is due two recalls one being software I think so maybe it should go in anyway.
I am tempted to use a company in Czechoslovakia who if you send the key, old ecu and some details can give a plug and play for under 500 bucks.
Rather use someone in oz if possible of course.
Any ideas ?
