nope? the el fairmont ghia had the tickford engine and the ghia ecu is set up for the ghia options but afaik has the advantage of tickford maps..

if you have the bin files for the 6djb you could compare it to the xr6 and confirm weather or not it is correct. as im going on info that has been passed onto me..
but the tickford engine ghia do have the 6d catch code..

My 1998 ELXR8 has 6DHD I have converted it to Manual.
I have aquired these ecu which 1 would be the best to use.

6DFC - Jan 1997 EL XR8, manual, 3.23 diff.
6DFD - 1998 series1 XR8 (lo-po).

I'd use the 6DFD as yours is 6DHD it will have identical maps..

So any idea what (lo-po) means.

Still looking for a 6DGC ecu !!!!!

Can do this on a chip, if you're interested.

the reason i'm after this ECU is because i bought a powerchip from this forum and i can't get it to work, the seller eventually said tough - i got ripped you too! just flog it off to the next sucker! but i can't do that, so i wanna try another ecu.

whilst on the chip though my brother in law has a 4DKF in his XR8 ex HWP that goes nice in the Fairlane too as i swapped them over when he lent me the car, and that would be good, but what can you do with the V8 auto shift module to change gears at 5,700 like his does? any ideas? so how much are the chips? sounds interesting

What model/bin/box code was the PowerChip? If it contains a compatible EL V8 bin and you cleaned your J3 contacts well, there's really nothing else it could be.

Can't do much with shift patterns in the V8s but have noticed that on my own car when I raise the rev limiter the WOT shifts seem to move with it.

Send me a PM if you're after more info, starting to get this thread OT...

Just throwing in my two cents, Had my ecu out and had a look

4DMF - 1996 EF Fairmont 4.0 , Auto, 3.23

its been Tickford optioned all round, so dont know if the ECU is different

I was looking at my 3 ECU's i have here, EB GT Manual is 2DCA, which is fine, but here is where i get confused. I have my original LTD 5.0 Auto ecu which is 3DFA, and i have an EB 5.0 Manual ecu which is 1DFA. Wouldn't they be either both manual or both auto having the same code? How can one of them be an auto version and the other a manual and they have the same letters?

ok! one more stoopid question, i have a NF 5lt (auto of course) could i run a 6DHC NL XR8 ecu? and would there be any improvements? my mate has the 4DKF EF XR8 chaser ecu and it was fun in the Fairlane, so i was wondering about the EL XR8 one.

I note that that Y3EC is listed as the same thing in other places, but cannot find any listing for a corresponding AU V8 MANUAL. Is it possible that Y3DF is manual after all?
