code 53, engine running well - fixed
#6
Taking a break from my transmission problem, I checked to see why my check engine light comes on and stays on. The check engine light clearing switch under the dash has no effect on it. Disconnect battery for a long time and reconnect makes no difference. Checked for the code and get only 53 repeated over and over. Disconnected the EGR wires, no change.

So the engine appears and sounds to be running perfect. Book says ECM not correct spec. What? So I read the numbers on the ECM and they are:

33920-58B40
E2T41 581 (followed by either r1 or maybe an M -- can't tell)
2Z15B T2
FED-AT

So, I look at the link Fixkick provided (Thanks) and it appears that I have a 1993 ECM in my 1995 car. Some previous owner must have replaced it.

Do you agree with my diagnosis?

Is there something harmless that I can do to continue using this ECM, but make it quit turning on the check engine light?

I think I have another ECM in my parts car (same car as mine, but assembled in Japan instead of Canada). Should I try swapping with that ECM if it is original. Haven't checked because still buried in snow.

What is actually causing the computer to detect that it is not in the correct car?

Does someone sell new ECM's for my car? Or other options available?
