Damaged ECU casing

You can send to Lockwood and have them check it out.

Can you share photos of the ECU so we can assess the damage? Also, can you connect to the ECU with a BUDS dongle to extract the data (if you own a BUDS Dongle)

Since you're in Denmark, you might consider contacting your local Rotax representative to see if they can assist with these tasks. Here is the ROTAX Service map for you to find the nearest Rotax service or repair center:

Hi guys,

Thanks for your thoughts. 

Transport is always cumbersome and expensive. And I’ll be honest, the service prices on Rotax authorised shops makes a full service visit with the BMW almost look like a steal, compared 😃

The BUDS might be a solution, I get verified that the ECU works, or how deep does BUDS get into the components of ECU?

I would still need to get a new casing and swapped with the damaged. 

pictures included, perhaps you have further advise.

thank you, appreciate 

Hi Morten

The ECU is made by Rockwell Collins in the USA for Rotax.  The ECU casting is not a seperate part.  Best you can hope for is that the internal parts function and you can band-aid the case back together to get it flying.  The ECU can be checked for function  by BUDS however it should be put on a running engine to verify all the ECU connectors to the sensors are working.  That means it must be run with the full wire harness and powered up with the fusebox and all the sensors connected.  The BUDS dongle and software will see every sensor and show any failures.

If the crack can be bonded back together with something like JB weld, an epoxy sealer/bonder, just be sure it is not grounded to the airframe and give it a try.  As Rotax Owner said some pictures would help and contact your regional service rep. 

Just my opinion, 

Cheers

I looked in original rotax parts- I must have mistaken fusebox with ECU 🤷‍♂️

Correct?
