yes change the faulty part first then the ecu,it sounds like you have the siemens symtec ecu that bolts on to the inlet manifold?only use good quality sensors as the cheaper ones non`t often work because the sensor values that are set inside the ecu are so close. | |

Well yeah but I'm an impatient fucker and wanted to start using my car again before the TPS turns up :lol: just wondered if I fitted the ECU to try the car out would it 'Store' the limp mode and even if I fitted a working TPS would I them have to go to Vaux to have the limp mode removed. | |

If you replace the TPS before the ecu, then in theory, if that's what it is it should be fixed? An shouldn't go in limp mode I wouldn't have thought. | |

Well it had a Throttle position sensor fault originally. Took it to a Vaux specialist who said it was the ECU. They are mounted on the side of the engine so eventually give up the ghost inside causing all sorts of random codes to pop up. | |

If its throwing a light on, it may possibly go off once the part is replaced, but will still store in ecu. | |

Right now I've had my ECU rebuilt and it has no fault codes. |
