Greetings.
I have a Motronic 1.8 module (OBD-I) with a 1-1-2 failure (cannot be cleared -- even with a battery disconnect). Spark, FI, etc. all up; vehicle drivable with some roughness recently setting in.
Not being the average "grease monkey" type, and, having some "real" electronics experience, I would like to simply affect any repairs which might typically be indicated.
However, before digging the module out of the car, I wanted to know what I might be up against. Specifically, it seems as though there are many outlets offering "remanufactured" Motronic 1.8 modules at the usual scalper's rates; so, I'm betting there are a few simple, common failures which take these units out of service from time-to-time.
Any ideas? Would the usual dried cap, SJ, and/or interconnect refit generally address Motronic issues of this ilk? As long as it's not a deliberately malicious codeblock, most common rework would be well within my grasp...
Thanks so much --
