P28 burned up/smoked

Post by htownhatch »

Today my ecu decided to burn up, one of the capacitors leaked and burned the ecu near connector A.

Should I send my s300 in for evaluation before using it on a new ecu?

Thanks

Assuming you mean socketing, in 2007.
I would just swap the s300 into the new ECU; there is a good chance it is undamaged.

yes sorry i meant socketing, the reason i ask is because i had Hondata socket the ECU for me back in 2012. Wonder why this capacitor would have blown so quickly if it was replaced.

It looks like the large capacitor was replaced. Original is brown, replacement is black. If you look on the bottom of the board you may see evidence of the other capacitor leaking.
