If you want to book an ECU repair in Whitley bay, you can compare quotes from our network of thousands of garages and mechanics, find the best price and instantly book online.
Whitley Bay is connected to Newcastle, around ten miles away, by the A193. Other A roads in the town include the A192, which travels north to Morpeth and south to North Shields, and the A191, which heads towards the A19. Whitley Bay often hosts a classic car show featuring hundreds of vehicles in September. Go North East and Arriva operate most bus services in the area, and the Tyne and Wear Metro provides an easy way to get to Newcastle.
Since Whitley Bay is on the coast, cars in this area may experience a higher level of corrosion on key components, requiring them to be replaced more often. The bodywork starts to rust first; other parts most at risk include the brake callipers, nuts, and bolts. You can help to prevent this from happening by regularly washing your car, especially after a trip to the beach. Since rust spreads and eats away at metal components, it's best to get it fixed sooner rather than later. FixMyCar can help you find a bodywork specialist near Whitley Bay.
ECU stands for engine control unit, sometimes referred to as the engine control module (ECM). This component ensures your car's engine runs smoothly by, for example, determining the amount of fuel that goes into the cylinders. You can find out more about how it works here.
Signs of a faulty ECU include misfires, the check engine light, starting problems, and engine surges or lags. ECU testing and repairs can help you work out the cause of the problem, such as faulty wiring or a bad sensor.
ECU testing uses a diagnostic tool known as an OBD scanner, which extracts information from the car's computer and allows the technician to check fault codes.
Can an ECU be repaired? Most of the time, the answer is yes; the ECU can be reprogrammed or repaired. The same applies to water damaged ECUs, as long as the damage is minimal. Some technicians may offer mobile ECU repairs at a location that's convenient for you.
