Airbag ECU?

[rich1068]

Bit of a long shot but would anyone know where I might be able to source an airbag ECU for a '95 JZZ31 Soarer? Or a part number? It's the "small" ECU apparently.

Richard are you missing the particular ECU or is yours faulty? I ask because there are companies that repair/reset airbag ecu's.

I think this is the part you are looking for, there is a place in Chesterfield that breaks Soarers called Puremoto

Rich, I have located a secondhand ECU for you if you need one, let me know via PM and I’ll pass the details over to you.

Hi John. Thanks for the reply. Not mine but the ECU is faulty and cost is rather crucial so I think third party fixes may not be an option.

I'd very much like to speak to you Steve if that's at all possible? I'll PM you my number.

Unfortunately my cunning plan is going a bit Pete Tong.

The car itself has no MOT or tax due to the airbag fault. Currently a repair as suggested by @Britprius seems to be the only option.

Thanks for getting in touch today Steve. I've spoken to Tom. Fingers crossed!

Rich was this ever resolved? 

[rich1068]

Unfortunately not. Hence my comments in your thread.

Ok mate.. Shame did you like the car though? 

[rich1068]

Never actually saw it in the flesh but it looked nice enough on the photos. It belonged to a friend.

No worries.
