Rear Wiper Killed Ecu!

[KN6_GTR_VSPEC]

Ok sounds weird I was sitting in driveway and notice my front window was dirty so I cleaned it , proceeded to do rear window . I could hear motor but couldnt see water , tried again and no luck , i got a pin and checked for a blockage and tried again ... Fail. Then I see massive puddle under car WTF!!? open boot and it's flooded with water ? I dried it up and decided not to use rear wiper again , until I had to move car for dad to get his car out and I have ABS , ALSD 4WD lights on constant now . Checked where ecu is in boot and it's flooded!! Have I just f**ked my ecu!

the ECU isn't in the boot.

attessa ecu?

[leer34]

traction control and abs are in the boot arent they? left hand side?

[JonnoHR31]

ecu isnt in the boot but sounds like you've definately fried something attessa related. check all the fuses first

[KN6_GTR_VSPEC]

There are 2 ecu in boot on driver side mounted under parcel shelf , I checked fuses and they are all ok? But lights are still on , it's a series 3 aswell so it runs diff abs , atessa and so on! So I'm freaking out

[leer34]

can u try resetting them by disconnecting the battery for a while? ive heard of people doing this but it might only be for your main ecu.

[KN6_GTR_VSPEC]

Have not tried ecu reset but I hope it is ok , gonna he hard to find a kouki r33 GTR for spares

[KN6_GTR_VSPEC]

I reset the main ecu and no luck , I hear a click , from the boot when I start car and light comes on right after that

[leer34]

i dont know what the click would be, i dont think it would be coming from one of the computers unless theres a short there..if it was me id be getting an auto electrician or someone who can try and identify the faults in it, might save yourself alot of heartache

Problem fixed , water from rear wiper jet leaked because it was disconnected , probably when installing child restraints ( dodgy compliance workers ) and when I tried to use it I got water everywhere and it leaked into the ecu's. Unplug ecu and remove from car. Get a hair dryer and contact cleaner and give it a good blast while blowing hair dryer , reinstall ecu and check it works ( which mine did ) and install cable ties onto water hose so it can't come loose .

nice work, very lucky that there wasnt more damage to it
