Internal voltage regulators, capacitors or burnt tracks prevent the ECU from powering correctly.
🔧 3. Water or Corrosion Damage
Exposure to moisture, steam cleaning or harsh environments often corrodes PCB tracks, connectors, and internal components.
🔧 4. Component Failure
Faulty power drivers, failed ICs, memory corruption and sensor circuits cause misfires, derating or complete no-start conditions.
