Chazzy, take the baseplate off your old ECU,  my money's on water ingress - seems to be the main cause of ECU failure, which is why I blanked off all the holes in my undertray.

I'll have a look inside shortly. I took the precaution of cleaning the undertray and covering all the holes with good, sticky duct tape, black of course. The main culprit appears to be the hole under the 'hook' which locates the back edge of the ECU.
