Hi,

so long story short, Rb26 into R33gtst, using Apexi power FC, sent the wiring for the Rb25 loom to be mashed with the Rb26 loom to a guy. When the ignition is off, key is out and battery is connected the ECCS relay keeps clicking over and over every 2-3 seconds. A standard computer did the same thing.

1. What is the ECCS Relay and what does it do?

2. Anyone had this happen?

3. I know its a wiring issue and could be anything but where would you start looking if it was you?

Thank you :)

sorry I am not sure about why you are having a problem, but the ECCS relay is a critical component in the ECU wiring.

basically, it switches the ecu on or off by removing the main ecu earth. there is permanent earth to the circuit that controls it, if the power is turned off the ECCS relay keeps the ECU earth on until settings are saved, and then it turns off.

      Hey keep the ideas coming, I'm always keen on projects! But, problem fixed!  I got a cheapie ozito scope from Bunnings and had a good look in and around the bearing and sensor hole. I couldn't see a smoking gun but the bearing looked a bit strange, especially when comparing with a new one. I thought the cover had come off the bearing magnets.  Sorry for pics of a screen, I didn't have an SD card.     Good thing I had the old one to inspect. So, given I'm like a pit crew with wheel bearings and luckily I had a spare bearing because I f**ked up my parts order, I decided to just smash it out. Got the old one out in about an hour. So much easier when the parts haven't had a chance to rust together yet. 😂 And, well, found the problem.    In the second pic at about the 8 o'clock position, you'll see what I think is the tip of the old sensor.  The new sensor has definitely been rubbing but it's all intact, just a little shiny so I'm hoping it's fine.  The car brakes perfectly now and no errors.  I think the job took about 2.5h in the end. 👍🏻 I really appreciate the help in here as usual. Thanks guys.

      I was only looking because I saw some drops on the ground but it wasn't alot. Recently had it serviced will ask the mech to confirm. Find it strange that it looks standard though, can see in another photo of a random box
