I need help in San Jose
anybody in san jose or near by willing to help me by letting me use their ECU? We would have to have the same or very close production... i have a 2008 GS 350 RWD production in july 08. I believe my ECU is the problem my car won't start, I just need to confirm this by putting in a good known ECU before I go out and buy a new ecu! otherwise, i have to bring my car to the dealership... please help! i'm willing to throw cash down for someone's help..

Asking in your regional forum might help, also even if you plug someone else's ecu it still won't work, they have the immobilizer and vin programmed into the ecu so the car won't start anyways with a different ecu. You're best off taking it to the dealer so they can do a proper diagnosis
