JackD Posted March 17 Share Posted March 17 Hello all, I have a 2002 Nissan Pathfinder and unfortunately my idle control valve went bad and blew out my ECM. I would like to purchase a new one and have found quite a few on eBay, but they all have different serial numbers and I am not sure how to determine which to purchase. Has anyone replaced their ECM before that can help me out with this problem? Thanks in advance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slartibartfast Posted March 19 Share Posted March 19 I think I remember someone sending theirs in to have the mosfet for the IAC replaced. I imagine anyone who can do surface-mount circuit board repairs could do it, if you can track down the specs for the part. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CamperDan Posted March 20 Share Posted March 20 The chip or driver in question can be found on Amazon, but I just check and it's currently showing as unavailable. Here's a link to the part, hopefully it becomes available again soon https://amzn.to/3IO3UYJ Chris. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slartibartfast Posted March 21 Share Posted March 21 Out of stock at Digikey too, but there are still some on eBay. At least it's a through-hole component! Much easier to solder than the surface-mount I assumed it was. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JackD Posted March 24 Author Share Posted March 24 Thank you for your help! I ended up finding a whole new used ECM, installing this week along with the new idle control valve. Thanks again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
