When using op-com did you speak to:
1. Engine cooling ecu
2. Engine ecu.

Where did you get this fault code from m8?

sorry for that misunderstanding it was engine ecu m8.

the 2 fans are constantly on radiator cooling and aircon.

You want to check fault codes in engine cooling ecu m8, if no communication see when you just turn ignition on if the engine cooling light is lit, my money is it wont be. Then using autodata check feeds to engine cooling ecu. My money is on the engine cooling ecu being duff let me know how you get on m8.

What was the fix m8?

just to let you no for future reference, it was engine ecu which was at fault no supplying earth to temp switch and camshaft sensor. thanks for all the help,especially obd master he nows his stuff . cheers

Thankyou for the compliment m8. I usually get reset ecus off a guy i know. All you would need to program it is OPCOM and security code for vehicle. If you dont know security code, you have two options:

1. to read tms370 and post and i will tell you code.
2. Read vin from immobiliser unit using OPCOM, and order from dealer. I say read vin from unit as may have had already donor ecus?

Or buy second hand immobiliser unit, chips ecu,s from same donor vehicle. If you need mans phone no. for reset ecu pm me m8.
