What should I do if my ECU fails?

If the throttle housing and circuit has been thoroughly checked and pedal position sensor/circuit is OK, then the engine ECU is likely to be the cause of the EAC FAIL message. We offer a full rebuild on these ECU’s within 1-2 working days and return the ECU back to you without the need for reprogramming once you receive it back.

What causes the EAC to fail on a Ford Fusion?

What causes EAC fail message on Ford Fiesta?

Despite the fault codes blaming the throttle pedal or throttle housing these are not usually the cause of the problem. If the throttle housing and circuit has been thoroughly checked and pedal position sensor/circuit is OK, then the engine ECU is likely to be the cause of the EAC FAIL message.

What causes EAC fail and probable PCM failure?

The throttle body’s mechanism is functional: I tested it with a 12v battery and the body just opens fine. So I assume that a sensor, or something else, in the black plastic body is gone. The PCM doesn’t recognise the throttle body and this generates the EAC FAIL error. So, the only thing to do is replace it.

How can I get the EAC fail problem to go away?

For two days the EAC Fail problem won’t go away. I disassembled the throttle body and the MAV sensor in order to clean it (it was dirty of oil) but no way, the EAC Fail stayed. So, I went to the second hand spare parts shop and i bought a throttle body.
