I purchased this on eBay in an attempt to fix my runner, it didn't help. The problem was all in the timing so the ECU wasn't bad. I sold the runner to someone willing to rebuild it. I paid around $125 but I don't want to hang on to this thing trying to squeeze out $5. If you want it, make an...

In a rush, so I just grabbed one on ebay. Please delete this thread.

Good afternoon gents, title says it all. I have a 97 T4R and I think the ECM is bad. Engine: 3RZ-FE ECM: 89661-3D280

I pulled my ECM out and the part number on it is 89661-3D280 for my 3RZ-FE. I can find a few on ebay that are pretty pricey, but all the salvage yards seem to have is 89661-3D300. 1. Is there a range of part numbers that will work for me, or just the one? 2. Am I going to need to have this...

Made it through every step of the Ignition testing until I get to the ECM, which requires the engine to be idling. sad trombone I guess I'm going to start searching the junkyards for an ECM.

No worries, I'm not that sensitive. :) I don't see any vacuum hoses hanging, but some of them are getting pretty dry. I could understand running rough from a sketchy hose, but not even trying to start is beyond a vacuum leak I think. I will work on testing voltage today for the MAF and Crank...

Oh, I have not manually turned the engine because I didn't want to remove the fan to get in there, but when I crank it nothing sounds lumpy or chunky.

Today I got frustrated and tested everything again starting from the beginning. On the fuel side, the pump and pump (circuit opening) relay are brand new. The fuel filter has about 40k miles on it. The injectors have maybe 1k miles on them, all 4 replaced at once. On the spark side, the cam...

I don't know anything anymore.

Okay, I got help and I am sure the MAF sensor is testing good for resistance, but I didn't test voltage. So it still won't start, even with a healthy shot of starter fluid. It just cranks and cranks. I know the plugs are sparking and I know there is fuel to the rail, but I haven't tested...

No way man, that was for the ejector seat!

So I decided to clean the MAF even though it looked good. But, apparently I was looking in the wrong place because as soon as I shot the cleaner in there it cleaned the tiny little wire and now it is definitely shiny. I next went to test it with my multimeter, and I need some help. The...

There is most definitely spark, and I pulled and examined all 4 plugs. They were a little moist, but when I put them back and pulled out again they were still dry so I am assuming it was fuel from cranking. I pulled the MAF off, and it looks different from every one I have seen online, but it...

I towed it back to my house last night, working on it once a week was killing me. This weekend I am pulling the MAF out to see if its dirty and testing the crank sensor and grounds, etc.

So I pulled the codes today and it was showing "camshaft position sensor" so I ran to Autozone and picked on up. No change in cranking, so I removed the existing spark plugs to look for spark and they are sparking strong. After changing the CPS, I unhooked the battery for about 2 minutes, and...
