Are the ECUs actually remanufactered, or did they just pull them out of a dead truck, wipe them off, and call it a day?
I know the Ranger from that era has the classic leaky caps that kills it’s ECUs. You can easily buy a $20 soldering iron from harbor freight and $5 worth of caps and fix yours if it’s the same problem.
This right here, there’s not a whole lot on a PCB that can “explode” on their own, and caps is at the top of that short list. And early 2000s, 90s caps are notorious for this issue
Next ECU you get @[email protected], check the caps or just replace them anyways. Even high quality ones are not very expensive
