Hi Dave,
I have not been back here for a while then when I do I see your clearing out your 800 spares.
Are they still available or am I too late?
Jim

PM sent!

Thanks Adrian, even if it went in 2-3 car loads to various people it would be better than it slowly going to the tip in dribs and drabs and maybe even in the wheelie bin. I'd rather see it all potentially used than go to waste. I've made a similar offer of my Volvo spares (not quite as many) on the ...

Due to the demise of my 827 Sterling, i now have a huge amount of 800 spares, some are 827 specific, others are general 800 that i am offering free to anyone willing to collect them. Everything from switches to subframes and a used steering rack! A large trailer or Transit style van will be needed, ...

If I use the ECU from TB2, will it "sync" with TGM or do I need to swap more electronic bits? Plug and play? At least I have the fobs for both. They are both non-turbo Same as listed before Scott, ECU, CCU, fob and key (just to dangle near the ignition barrel) and maybe the reciever mounted under t...

Ha! Never mind testing my brain cells, get your cells solving the haunted Rover conundrum... You see I have so many Rover 800s I get them all mixed up. Would a Turbo ECU be any good? I have a complete spare working Coupe I could borrow bits from... It'll work as "proof of concept" Scott but you mig...

Yes 98 on a V. That can't be right. Must be at least a '99 on a 'V'. My Sterling is a 'T' plate registered on the 16 August 1999 (who the heck registers a car then?). 'V' plate came in from 1 September 1999 and ran until end of February 2000. It is highly possible that the car was made in 1998 but ...

Surely that's a 1998 or 1999 car though?

Anyone got the above parts? ECU CCU and Fob? 1987 820.

Have i got the wrong car Scott? I thought we were talking about TGM with the LPG?

You'll need the ECU, CCU, reciever (fag-packet size box under the back end of the centre console) and the key from the donor for the transponder (dangle it on your key ring but use your own key to operate the steering lock/ignition) and obviously make sure that when the donor ECU etc is removed, the...

You're welcome Henrik, as the fault isn't so obvious with the newer ECU, i'd suggest there is probably a latent fault with the original ECU and probably an intermittent wiring fault or the CPS is beginning to go. Sometimes faults like this can be the result of two or more items going slightly out of...

The Legend 2.7 usees the same CPS Henrik, yes. The kangaroo cut-outs could be down to the old ECU but there may be a wiring problem too, the CPS doesn't often fail although it can do. I believe (though not 100% certain) the 1996 on Accord V6 (USA model) uses the same sensor in the C27 engine, not to...

Now you've put some distance on it Henrik, try resetting by pulling fuse S again, it may be an anomaly that triggered it again, especially as it ran well for that distance. I'm guessing it gave good fuel economy on the trip as well?

The light is back on…

Any ideas on the OE number on the crank shaft sensor?

Have you read the codes to confirm it's the same fault?

Update on the PGMFI-light. I got a replacement ECU about a week ago and today I managed to swap it with my old. At first the light went on and I couldnt get it out But when I returned home I made new resetting by pulling fuse S and after that the light is off! I have only driven it for a few short ...

Great news Henrik!
