HELP! I think i just knackered my ECU (Blink Codes
OK,
So my engine blows up and i replace it with a 2007 engine in a 2000 car... fine. I had to change the crank and cam sensors etc.
Got it all up and running beautifully with a CEL warning and, and a 6k Revlimiter kicking in.
So i was going to take to honda on monday to get the error codes off the ecu and while reading some info on the site came accross this page:
http://www.modifry.com/freebies/old/dtc/index.htm
http://www.k-series.com/tech_detail.php?Tech_ID=CEL
Basically i have a uk car and i used a paperclip to ground pin 9(green and white wire) to pin 5.
Went to start engine... NO CEL LIGHT and ENGINE WON'T START. Turns over but WON'T START.
I am gutted. Have i knackered my ECU?
I really hope not.
Any help would be really appreciated.

I can't say (don't know what your wiring harness looks like). I would suggest you check the ECU fuse. If that's ok, then call the dealer and ask them for advice. Good luck.

Fixed It,
Believe it or not it was the tiny blue alternator fuze 15amp, under the hood.
I think i shall take it to honda now for diagnostics... not sure the paperclip trick works for uk cars.
