hi, can you help me if possible please, i have a fiat punto 51 plate, i have recently had a new ecu fitted as it was only running on two cylinders, it came back from the garage with that problem cured, but it now cuts out, and wont restart for at least 10mins unless the battery is disconnected and reconnected, ive just had rps sensor (think thats whats its called) as fiat suggested that may b the problem but that still hasnt cured it!
have you got any idea what could be causing this, and could it be the garage who originally replaced ecu who could have caused the problem?
thanks

hi, i would be putting the blame on the ecu,,you should have some kind of warranty for it from whoever supplied and fitted it ,,i would definitley go back the the garage who done the job and ask them to check it out ,,,was it a genuine fiat ecu or a revamped ecu?...cheers...moz..
