I need help, I have a 02’ 5.7 gxi I burned one ecu up and bought another that was remanufactured, I thought I had found a loose disconnected ground and fixed it. Plugged in the new ecu and the boat ran great for 4 hours. Dropped throttle when coming off plane, the motor died and would not restart. We plugged in diagnostic tool and the ecu would not read. I sent it to Bob at Mefiburn an d he confirmed the second module was toast. I bought another off EBay and had him re program it. I tested it on my port (good engine) and it works fine. Spring is here and I’m ready to get her in the water, but I dont want to plug another $1500 ecu into a harness that will fry it. Any advise on how to diagnose/ and fix this issue would be greatly appreciated as i would like to get more than 4 hours of boating in this year. I’m having trouble finding someone to work on this and really could use any advice! TIA
