ECU no power? New ignition and ECU Need a bit of help pls.
Hi, thanks in advance for any help anyone has.
2000 rx300- Car died on the road had it towed home. CEL does not illuminate at all. Ecu and ignition have been replaced again (it was recently replaced for other reasons so I suspected bad parts) anyhow I bought a code reader and as suspected it won’t even communicate with the car.
If anyone could point me in the right direction or have a diagram or pinout for the ECU so I know what am looking for. I suspect it is not getting power or ground somewhere.
I would be forever grateful for any other ideas anyone has.
Thanks again,
Cliff

Try to get hold of the circuit diagram and ensure 12v and ground [reference to the battery terminal] at the ECU and then 5v.
Depending on what was done before, you may like to go over engine ground strap.

update- I found a diagram and verified power/ground to ECU and also once again the rfid amplifier- Then in desperation I squeezed all the plugs in the area of the ECU in the passenger toe kick and bam. Back in business.
