ECM options...

Well after months of chasing down problems, it turns out that my ECM is toast. Now that I will need a new one , I was wondering if I should just buy a reman one or send mine out for repair. To put in perspective, a reman cost on the high end, $150 (thats with a 3yr warranty). To send mine out for repair its around $250. I have heard bad stories about reman ECMs, but I dont know whether the repair would be much better.

Re: ECM options...

Just run on down and get ya a reman with the 3 year warranty and be done with it. If it fails take it back.

And after reading your other post, sounds like your board is bad anyway.

Unless you have the time to send out and wait for it to come back....plus more money
