Hi all, I have a 2000 Evinrude 175 FICHT, I have the evinrude software and hooked up my laptop after having the warning light come on. I had 8 codes , 2 with TPS, so I re-adjustd and got it fixed, and the other 6 were all 6 coil pack codes. I read on another forum possible ecu/emm having bad capacitor inside because OMC ecu/emm were not made that great compared to the BRP ones. Anyhow thanks for any help on what to possibly check, I also have a complete spare engine,but it does not have a ecu/emm on it, but everything else is there. |

That usually means the ECU is bad. Generally when you do the spark test you will see it jump around instead of firing the one cylinder that you are testing. |

I belive you are right , I am trying to get ahold of DFI technologies to get the ecu re worked or buy a newer one and have the software changed over, but I can not get ahold of them, are they the only people in the US that can do this work to a ecu? |
