Chevrolet Nivac

Manufacturer — GM-AVTOVAZ, Russia
Year of issue – 2013
In operation “Behind the wheel” – since May 2013
Mileage at time of report – 155,000 km


In old age (mileage is more than 150 thousand km), the car begins to cause completely unexpected surprises.

He suddenly stopped while driving. And flatly refused to start. I’ve checked the spark plugs, the fuel pressure in the rail – everything is normal. I had to get into the controller.

The mold covering the board turned out to be the culprit.

Cause of malfunction

The ECU is located on the right side of the front panel, under the dashboard, behind the glove box, just below the heater motor. Water seeped into the cabin through the air intake and fell on the controller.


Repair

I found a master who cleaned the board and also calculated and replaced the unusable radio components. He paid five thousand rubles for the work.

And I saved at least ten more on buying a new ECU.
