If power is present at pin 7( L/Y evo 8) and pin 9 (L/W) the ecu may be toast. If no power present futhur diag required. Good luck
Does the engine crank when the key is turned?
Pin no.7 and pin no.9 ??? On the ecu ? no7 is an empty pin, no.9 is emissions bs, unless you're talking about these pins somewhere else other than the ecu


Yes, the engine cranks, It'just that the power fc doesn't light up(commander) so obviously no spark, no fuel,

Ecu can't be toast, cuz the stock ecu doesnt start it either, neither does it make spark

Also the Immobilizer ecu could cause power issues the the pcm, but also check the MFI relay. Good luck
