    Hi all,
    My father in laws, 2007 Auris 1.4 Diesel's power steering light came on and steering went heavy. He went to toyota garage, said 1000 euro for a new ecu.
    I replaced the ECU on my Astra which I got second hand for 20 euro a couple months ago.
    Anyone have any experience replacing ECU's on an Auris/Toyota.
    Is their a special ECU for power steering, sepearate to the main ECU.

    Any help at all, I would be great full...

    It's not the whole dash that needs to come off, the top half seperates, takes about 15 min, and yes very common for the power steering control unit to fail, it's due to bad internal soldering...
