So Lee came over this morning with literally every possible module that could have gone wrong......
Started by unplugging the ECU and checking that as the carpet was canny damp, but it seemed as if there weren't any obvious signs of water damage.
The next check was for the BCM (body control module), and this is where it got interesting. We set about pulling all of the plastic nonsense away so that we could get the battery out and straight away it was obvious that water had been getting through. The back of the BCM was wet and once the battery was out we saw this....
Not sat in that hole....
As well as this.....
Which would suggest the slightly damp carpet!
So the gromet at the bottom was replaced and the gromet at the top clipped back into place and fully siliconed around the edge for peace of mind.
Lee had a spare BCM (see above pile of boxes) and set about ripping the old one out, checked all the contacts (to which some had taken water on board due to the green tinge of them), and then installed the new BCM.
We then reconnected the ECU and battery before coming to the moment of truth......firing the beast up......and boy did she! Couple of blasts of the smiley pedal confirmed that everything was back to normal and then we switched her off.
All plastic nonsense was refitted and an oil top up was done before Aaron and myself took off down the road for a Parmo.
I can't thank Lee enough for coming and pulling me out of the shite, I've only known him for a fortnight but the guy is a legend and probably one of the most clued up lads I've ever come across. I won't trust anyone else to get the job done right and at such short notice too!
Over the moon it wasn't the ECU either!!!!!!!!
