Hi all, My Lexus IS200 '03 won't start after a new battery was fitted, the mechanic says its an electrical fault so I call an auto electrician out, he thinks it's the ECU for two reasons, 1, the engine light on the dash just flickers, it's not on nor off, just flickers and 2, when he connected his diagnostics machine to the car, he could see all the devices except the ECU. My question is two fold, is this a fair explanation of the fault and what advice can you give me on what to do next as it sounds expensive? Thanks in advance Steve

Hi all, I recently left my car for two months as I was away, cane back to a flat battery, replaced the battery but it still won't start, it turns over nicely but just won't fire up. The only noticeable thing wrong is that the engine light on my dash keeps flickering, it's neither off nor on, just constantly flickers. I was wondering if this is an error message. I plugged in a diagnostics machine but it wouldn't connect, will replacing the battery cause an immobiliser fault? Please help, I'm now desperate Thanks in advance
