Well, I've seen a new one on me. Fuel pump relay had a bit of stray 
solder floating around in it. It shorted out the relay, and took out 
the relay driver in the ecu. In experimenting, I managed to zap the 
ECU in another car as well. Anyone ever have this happen? Does anyone 
know of a generic replacement for the driver? I haven't taken apart 
the ecu and located the driver yet, but I will today.
