Do corsa 1.0l engines have ECU?

[zackj]

Hello!.
I have a X Reg 1.0l Corsa b and wanted to know if it has a ECU like the new Corsa C models?
I know you can run a "paper clip" test to see weather there are any faults stored but can you do this on the 1.0l 12v? (Its an expression model therefore does not have PAS, or anything electrical really!

yes it will have an ecu, it shud be behind the kick pannel on the drivers side foot well.

and the diognostic plug for the paper clip test is in the fuse box next to your knee if you sit in the drivers seat.

for info about the paper clip test check the FAQ

i think the ecu's for 1L's are under neath the scuttle pannel actually

Yeah it is Matty Thanks!
Is there proper software and an adapter you can buy to connect it up to like a normal laptop!?
Sorry if thats a stupid question lol

you can buy cheap knock off ones off ebay for like 30-40 quid but they aint much gd, proper ones arent cheap at all. but a garage will charge you about 40 for a diognostics test.

Ah!,
Just got one on eBay for £15.
Do you think it will give me false information ? or just not very accurate ?
