question 4A-FE engine control unit in ae111r g6

[LeCid974]

Hi there
Wednesdey @ 14:30 i'm going to fix a ae111r engine start problem.
the guy sell him 1999 Corolla G6 4AFE for a penny...'cause don't start.
he tells me he get the car to a garage for his regular chek up...and then when they'd replace cooling water car never ever wants to start up...guys at the garage said "it's the ecu, you have for much more than you can sell this car"

for now I'm going to check if it's really a ECU issue (To be honnest, I don't want to trust theses guys..)

But if it's really the ECU wich is dead, there's my question :

Where is it located into the AE111 1999 'rola ?
What kind of other ECU could works fine with the 4A-FE ? I heard about some 4A-GE ecu will works (if I can't found a 4A-FE M/T ecu)

For make me win some time, what do you think I must check in priority on this G6 'rolla for it starting up ?

Thanks for readers, for now, I offer a drink to my future heroe .. :freddy:

Check out the crank shaft timing toothed wheel behind the bottom timing belt cover, known of those to loose a tooth before.

Thanks for your reply !

I've view the car, I've a Engine error code 12 wich is G,Ne signal missing, Ditributor or ECU issue ...
So I've ordered a second hand complete Distributor and an ECU fro onother guy who have a 4AFE AE111r G6 (it's the SR for UK people )
I'm waiting for theses parts and I come back to complete.
