    Common for them to fill with water because of the windscreen seal cracking above them.

    Got told that the GQ ecu once drowned can be dried out and used again???

    I have not tried to plug my old one in to test that.

    Who often do you here of ECU failing because of windscreen leaks?

    Don't think I have heard of on yet.

    My ECU has had rust stains on it for years and years from river crossings and it hasn't failed yet

    So that's 4 out of how many Patrol's you know were made? But I wouldn't call it a common fault. Yes a sh!t location 2 have it and if you were 2 get a windscreen leak above it it would probable would fail just like it would probable fail driving your 4b through a river and getting water into the passenger side foot well 1 2 many times *L*

    I don't know the story of every other Patrol that was made, it's a pretty common problem considering.
