great to hear your motoring...

i had a vito van and a friend brought it and deaden batt and then jumped it and blew ecu.. the main dealer said it a common problem in the vito.. he said turn on park lights before connecting jump leads and the lights will take the surge not your ecu... had to scrap van aswell because cost of fix was way to much... :wall:
[/quote]

good idea ..... might try that the next time ...

cheaper to replace a blown bulb than a blown ecu
