I know this has been disucssed to death but I just need to get it clear in my mind!

I've got a Eber D2 Airtronic 12v heater with 301 controller, about 25 years old. 10 years ago I fitted a second hand ECU as it failed, light use and serviced every few years and when opening hardly any coking etc.. Over the last year its taken a couple attempts to start but fires up and recently stops after 5 mins or so. Serviced it with a service kit, still the same and the fuel pump was intermindently pumping that well so I swapped out the fuel lines with clear lines (so I could see the fuel pump), fitted an inline filter and new fuel pump. Lots of trial and error so I assumed I had locked out the ECU with failed starts but now its running in ventialtion mode all the time and nothing is being pump / no apparent start up sequences.

Trawling the web its either...
.... locked out and can I reset it with a 301 controller
.... the ECU is dead

Big ££££ for an ECU - not a hugh number of 12vs available second hand, instead go for a chinese one at £70 to 80 quid or go for a 7 day controller and establish the error codes and go from there...

Hi All

As an update if anyones interested, I bought from ebay a Chinese controller, motherboard / ECU and loom following a youtube video where its been done. Needed to rewire the connector plugs for the glowplug and fan, installed it today and worked a treat. All in 30 quid including a 460 pcs connector set.

Here's the link to the video.

Cheers
