Central locking ECU..replacement.
« on: 16 November 2018, 17:57:31 »
I need to find the correct replacement central locking ECU for my 2000 F/L ex plod 3.0 MV6. I was looking through a post from a couple years back in which Dr G pointed out that the plod 3.2's had an Elite loom for the fitment of the CL ECU, does any one know does that apply to the 3.0 as well? :-\

The engine is irrelevant.  Its the car spec.  GLS and below are Central Locking. CD and above are ATWS. FL Estate is different to FL Saloon.

If a saloon FL, I'd suggest getting one from a later car to avoid that annoying having to remove key from ign to open the boot.

Thanks for the info Jamie,Omegas 52 has a few but is there any way of identifying the correct item,because they all seem to have different part numbers on them.

There will be a yellow sticker with two letters on it. Match the letters and the part number doesn't matter ;)

Or go for later one, with the better boot opening ;)

Ex police saloon so no anti theft, tried an alternative solenoid but still has the same problem....hence the faulty ECU theory. I'm going out to the car and taking a look at the ECU for a part number :y

What is the problem?

I would be looking to repair broken wires in the door looms near the door Hinges before I started worrying about swapping ECUs

that would be my advice too. I sold my car before fitting the replacement door loom.

Rewelding the check strap has the potential to cause issues... Ecu lives behind it ;)

The ECU is working...but when unlocking the car with the fob it unlocks and then re locks instantly,but only on dry days, damp days works perfectly.Door strap was done a long time ago by Serek and as we know he's done quite a few in his time,and all wires etc are in good condition.The only large letters on the ECU are CG  but not yellow :-\

That's exactly what mine did, but was worse with the door open. I would still be checking the wiring.
