Hi, just wondering on my ecu I got from here, the blue light on the chipboard has died,

What does this mean, other then car won't run?

Cheers

Has the bin_sw jumper been removed? The LED will be off with that removed.

Hey mate, still dead,
I've managed to get a stock ecu to run in the vehicle and I've tested modified ecu in another vehicle,
Any other test I can try to figure out the issue?
Cheers

Does it need the light to b lit to complete circuit?

i don't believe so, i think its just there to let you know which way the jumper is switched (vl400 will be able to confirm)

Yeah thats correct. there is room for 2 bins on the nvram, the jumper picks if its using the top half or the bottom half, and the light is lit if its the first one I think. maybe vice versa. It should still be working overall either way.

The LED is purely an indicator so will work without it, however LEDs do not generally die so may be something else causing it. If the NVRAM is not working can send it back and will check it out, just send me a PM.
