Just cos it's a NNN500020 doesn't make it the same as your old one. Sure the hardware is the same, but I'd it came out of a Disco and you've just put a fuel map on, then there's your problem.

The fuel map is not the problem. Did you get a new map on a new ecu at the same time, or are you saying the ecu you have now was running ok before the map went on?

It sounds like it could need a complete flash to make it into a defender one rather than a Disco.

Back to Pete (BAS) or Gary to work some magic.

For future reference
I am pretty sure I have faulty Modulator
I just found out while driving on a dirt track when it jammed the front brakes on.
A bit scary
Not sure now do I pull the ABS system out and revert to standard brakes.
Or suck it up and get the Modulator repaired

Problem solved Jobson Electronics in Carlton reconditioned the Modulator.
All seems well evidently the pistons in the Modulator stuff up along with other things.
So I get a reco Modulator with 4 years warranty for a grand or so.
The new one has 12 Months warranty and costs 4 times as much
