That said I have toyed with various theories including, sticky valves, faulty ECU, bad electrical joint, radio frequency interference from passing mini-cabs/public service vehicles blitzing the ECUs working values. prompting a reset etc. Any

  Hi guys. I recently bought a second-hand 306 1.6 Auto (V reg. 2000), and it's performed like a dream up until recently. The EMU/ECU light keeps "flickering" on and off and on occasion, when I come to a stop, the engine will stall. Today, things got markedly worse still as I when I accelerated

  and can’t quite understand why it won’t work. Is this likely to be linked to having a different BCM? Will a central locking receiver be needed or will it simply need a new programmed key? The MD say they can't read the ECU (for a recall)  because the BCM was changed, at some point

  connector, one receives 5 volts (from the ECU) and the other zero. Ideally I'm looking for a temperature vs resistance or voltage curve. Ford want almost 150 quid for a replacement so if any of you know another cheaper supplier I'd be grateful. Thanks in advance. Dan
