I've narrowed down the engine problem on my 51 plate Punto 8v to the ECU. I can buy a new one from Fiat for £352 and fit it myself. I've been told the programming of ithe ECU is quite simple but do not know the exact method or process involved in programming it. I'd appreciate advice / programming instructions. I've also been offered an alternative of a reconditioned ECU but am wary of going down that route, as I'm told it may require replacing locks and ignition switches. HELP!

Buy reconditioned ECU from Fiat or other and fit. Run engine with engine symbol flashing in dashboard until electric cooling fan comes on. Over rev engine a few times (3 or 4) and the flashing light on the dashboar goes out = programmed - safe motoring...
