Hi guys, hopefully I am in the right area for asking for some help. Finally got my ECU back from the chip guy, plugged it in - and... no joy. Engine wont fire up. Car = 1988 WB Starion 4G63T with 82,000k's Upgrade = chipped ecu from SuperChips Problem = Car is in showroom condition (which makes this issue more stressful) and was starting up and driving wonderfully before chipping - since re-installing the chipped ECU the car will not fire up. Pre surgery = disconnected battery (pos first), removed ECU, wrapped up battery terminals. Post surgery = reconnected ECU (double checked plugs correctly seated) then reconnected battery (negative first etc) Symptoms = starter motor cranks motor over furiously like a 16yo schoolgirl pulling on a.. erm.. wrench. But no ignition. Engine doesn't explode to life like a low kilometre 4G63 should (as it did before removing factory ECU) Control measures investigated: All fuses okay. Connected the Evo3 Chariot (daily driver) to jump the Starion. Checked for spark from ignition system - lots of energy flowing everywhere. All instruments light up and gauges sweep etc. I need help from anyone familiar with Mitsubishi, Starions, chipped ECUs, etc. Please help - any tips or information will be greatly appreciated - If it comes to it I am happy to have the ECU chipped back to it's factory chip but any other constructive ideas or information would be preferred. If some kind soul could temporarily supply me with a working Starion ECU to troubleshoot my car with I would be in your debt. Hope to hear from someone soon. Kind regards, Bonehead.
