Thread: Nanocom or ECU????

So, no-one has ANY idea???

Do you mean to tell me that I might have found the ONE Land Rover problem that hasn't been brought up before?

Oil in the wiring harness ? (check the red plug on the ecu for contamination) - this can cause some whacky problems.

crossy

As they say - "you are not alone"...
I have similar faults logged on my 04 90 and three diagnostic boxes cannot clear them; my new nano evo (repaired by BBS within 1 week and back in full working order!), an Autoblogic box and a Faultmate.
Mine are similar in that they are Air con stuff (haven't got the complete list at the mo - sorry).

The boxes all say "faults cleared" then, without engine running and going back to read faults, they show again.

I've had the oily loom issue (No.4 injector fault) and have just had the rocker harness replaced. Injector fault and rough running gone but air con faults still show.

The seller did not advertise my vehicle as re-mapped but it has been - enough people have driven it to say it goes way better than standard.
Can't imagine a remap would somehow alter the way faults are monitored.

BTW: I have other errors showing: (am I the only one? )
Brake pedal down, Evo reports "brake switch off" and vice versa
Gearbox in high range, Evo reports "Low".

Another thread starter maybe - the Nano documentation shows:
• Fuel used: The TD5 ECU has been designed to work with a wide range of possible fitments and options. Many of the input sensors and output controls can be omitted giving many vehicle option, model or market variants. This value indicates if this TD5 ECU has its fuel used output for trip computers and econometers enabled or not.

Anyone set this to ON and hooked up a trip computer?

just checked my Evo;
Same list of faults as Basil's...
Feeling spooked now

How many of you have chipped or flashed ECU's??
There has been odd errors popping up after chips have been done and not being able to be cleared.
Tombie is a bit more in the know on this and has dealt with issues relating to errors after a remap.

I am not a moderator, I am a human being!!!

Basil, do you have a power upgrade on your ECU, or is yours standard??

OK, just noticed you do, if you still have the standard file and the upgrade file available.

Replace the power upgraded file with the standard file and see if the fault still appear, if they don't then it's something with the upgrade file, now replace the standard file with the upgraded file and see what happens, if they reappear then this will confirm the upgrade file is corrupt and you may need a new file from Tombie.

Baz.

Upgrade file won't be corrupt.
Just a different revision number ECU causing a few 'ghost' errors.

Nothing to worry about....

There's no extra chippery/wires, externally on/near my ECU box.
Should we be differentiating between "chipped" (bolt-on goodie) as opposed to "re-mapped"?
How would we tell?
Am guessing that Basil's system has been re-mapped in a way that's similar to mine, given that we are getting similar fault codes.
