Hi... I have a 2003 Ford Fiesta LX. Petrol.. Duratec 1242 engine. 71,000 miles. For the last few days it has been a pig to start. On the 19th I was on the way to work. All power seemed to fail and i got an error message on the milometer. EAC FAIL. I managed to get off the main road to a side road and called the R.A.C. The guy used his laptop on it and said it was not showing a fault. Well except one. The Air conditioning. It doesnt have air conditioning. He followed me to work a distance of about 5 miles to see if it would happen again. It didnt. It appears that the culprit might be the Power Modul. The last time i had a fault i was told it was this and that but turned out to be the coil pack. I dont really want to get into that situation again spending money with no cure. I followed a link on here to the ECU doctor. That seemed to me to be the answer. I dont mind paying around £120 if it will cure it. I have to have a vehicle to get to work. I live in a village and the transport is next to nothing. It will mean hiring a vehicle while it`s off road..Thats a better alternative than loosing my job. What I`m really after is advice.. Should I remove the unit and get it to The ECU doctor. paganuk
