EJ22 ECU Chattering
Hi!
?
I've been trying to find out a lousy chattering noise from under the bench seat for a while now, and think I may have found it.
?
I have a 1990 Westy with an EJ22 conversion. On cold start, there's no noise from the back, but after the engine, then I start hearing a chattering noise. Thi happens at idle and low acceleration from idle. It sounds like it may be coming from the ECU. Has anybody else had this problem? Is this a way for the ECU to tell me it's about to fail?
?
Thanks! |
开云体育Likely to be a relay under there as the ecu has no moving parts unless you’re hearing electrical popping in which case you’d want to figure that out really quick I think? On Sat, Apr 12, 2025 at 4:31?PM SoquelDude via groups.io <soquel.dude@...> wrote:

If it is the ECU it could be a bad battery. How old is yours. Have it checked
out. Try another battery.

开云体育Wayne, thanks for the link. But in that thread, if the ECU was constantly
rebooting, then the car would be bucking like hell, which it’s not. It runs real
smooth.

It may be one of the 2 other relays (fuel pump and starter) that are next
to the ECU. Luckily, I have 2 relays that I can use to replace them. I’ll update
the thread after I do that tomorrow.
