Barry Smith Motors advised me that my ECU is faulty. They already replaced the original ECU at 93000km, (now 100000) 4 years ago and the car is now running perfectly after fuel filter replacement and throttle body cleaning today. 2 days ago I interrogated the ECU using straightened hairclip on terminals 5&6 and read 2 codes "knock sensor" and "HEGO sensor". Do I really need to do anything about these sensors? The engine certainly does not "Ping". Can I clean the HEGO sensor myself? If yes, where is it? I do not intend to spend $1000+ for another ECU if I can avoid it. What are the likely consequences if I take the risk?
Many thanks for any advice.
