Default RE: ECU Burn-out problem

Thanks Rich,

I'm not an electronics guy but this sort of explanation sounds plausible to me. To be clear, I would bridge the diode between the positive and negative leads from the ECU to the starter motor? This is a pic of the connector from the ECU to the motor. One positive lead and then a negative for the starter and one for the glow plug (I presume), not sure which is which. Is it OK that the positve is shared by the starter motor and glow plug?

Anybody else see a problem with trying this?

Thanks,

Craig
