ECU notes
Original EPROM PSOP 44 pins 29F400BB. Eprom placed on the LEFT side (SX) (if you have the ECU with the connector facing down); this chip manages injection,VANOS controls and RPM limiter. To work on this ECU you can use NewTrasdata In order to read this EPROM with the eprom programmer you need the adapter for PSOP and the card 15A with EMP20 or 202B with EMP21.
