Hey guys,

I have a 1994 Toyota Celica ST, 1.8l 7a-fe, standard tranny.

I am restoring and rebuilding this car. Yeah, I know it's not a GT. Yeah, I know it's slow. Anyways, a rat chewed into the engine wiring about 3 years ago... I've been working on and off again on the car. Now I am motivated to get it finished. This past winter, I went through the tedious task of learning wiring diagrams, going over every wire, repairing, etc. Last week, after replacing some components such as fuel pump and distributor, I fired this baby up. And it cranked up immediately... perfectly... in about 3 minutes the blue smoke cleared from the exhaust. This thing ran like the first day I got it. I was proud.

Then...

Long story short, I ran a hot wire to the condenser fan and burned up some wiring. I went back and replaced the wiring I fried, plus replaced the fuses that blew, and also traced all the wiring (since I haven't wrapped it up yet Thank God) and then tried to crank it last night. Nothing... efi fuse still keeps blowing.

I tear open the ecu... and low and behold, I have a broken burnt trace, and 2 diodes exploded. I am pretty savvy at repairing electronics... HOWEVER, I cannot find anything on the web that can tell me what kind of diodes I need. So, I need a very nice member of this forum to do me a favor...

I need to know what kind of diodes go into the D001 and D004 spots on the 7A-FE ECU for a manual transmission. I will now attempt to post some pics.

DriftMotion repairs 1JZ and 2JZ ECU’s all the time. While they don’t specialize in 7A ECU’s, it’s the same principal so I’m sure they can repair yours as well.

Have you tried searching your ECU PN on eBay? There are plenty used ECU's available for $25-40. Not worth it to repair at that price, unless you really, really want the challenge.
