Yep borrow a compatible one from a friend, or maybe take the car to a honda dealer and ask them to diagnose the ECU for a small fee, they should have some spare testrig ECU's lying around. Or get a cheap 2nd hand one from a Japanese wrecker

Hey Ben
I can lend you an ECU if you want to try it out and see if it fixed the problem
thanks ecu man, ben got a spare one atm already
cool
good luck with it
hey all, it is a little update , today, we put another ecu on but no luck, same thing still happened, i let the car idled 10 mins and rev hard on it , everything is normal, but as soon as i put in the gear and started moving , 5 seconds later , car started struggling and stalled.
The thng we found out today is when i turned the key (not start) you know you supposed to hear a click after engine light off, that sound now mixes with immobliser sound (only once short one ) , also we replace the 20a horn fuse , it blew again, when i turned the key in and tapped the horn button, the immobliser sound followed the rhythm (four times instead of once), so i'm totally confused now , can anyone please any ideas , cheers
One thing i forgot to say is when i tried to drive it today, cos the hood was on, before it started getting struggled i did hear imobliser made little sound, so yeah
electrical prob with the immoboliser then yeh??
dunno if this will help but i had a problem with an 04 astra. It would rev freely by itself at the lights, stall out by itself and lock itself even if i was in the car driving down the freeway.
it ended up beinga problem with the key. A frequency problem or something.
Like i said it might not help but it could lead you to something.
other then that it could be some dodgey wiring somewhere.
Goodluck.

my two points immobliser link to fuel pump and starter motor
*updated* -
as said , the 20 fuse for "horn/backup" keeps blowing.
Also , the horn is obviously blowing hte fuse BUT when you push the horn , the noise can be heard on the alarm siren ( a slight tap tap)
This means there is wires touching somewhere....
Perhaps the battery short stuffed something up inside - rooted the immobilizer ?
