94 JDM S40ii (mine) = ECU - yes, TCU - yes
92 JDM VL (Ron) = ECU - no, TCU - yes
92 JDM VL (SVXistentialist) = ECU - yes, TCU - yes
95 UK (SVXistentialist) = ECU - no, TCU - yes
92 USDM (UPnorth362) = ECU - no
94 USDM (UPnorth362) = ECU - yes
92 USDM (racerx9146) = ECU - yes

The interesting thing for me is that there are different results for identical cars.

Some ECUs are just plain faulty. I reckon that the signal they produce is slightly too out-of-spec or noisy for the converter chip to handle.

Hi Phil,

You mention of noise, makes me wonder as to whether the ECU in question, particularly '92, have had the ferrite bead crushed, as per the much publicized mod.

Cheers, Trevor.
