My Grandmother's Bulova International and the 1997 obsolete and unobtanium Motorola 5202GE IGBT that left me stranded on the side of the road yesterday. It's from the injector driver module which of course when failed means you get no more injection. A diesel engine doesn't run too well without injection...

Blue sky, blue birds are out, and temps are perfect (15 in new math). Perfect time to wear the Crystal Seven
inboost my old 944 used to occasionally eat ECUs and leave me by the side of the road like that. No fun. I eventually started to carry a spare one in the glovebox for those occasions. I suspect you don't have that option. |

This one's the size of a manhole cover, I didn't expect it to be that big. It's on 22mm strap, so that should give an idea of the size.  |

victor , I can of course swap parts like any other repair bench monkey, but I'm totally unfamiliar with this device and that means I can't reasonably pick substitutions for the part(s) that are blown up as there are no specs available to me to cross reference. The 5202GE is completely unknown to the internet which probably means it was a private label part for Ford to their spec from Motorola and was never publicly sold (not uncommon). Then of course I still need to figure out who-dunnit (was it the IDM or the truck that precipitated the failure).
Of course old IDMs can be found on Ebay but you never know what state they are in. Fortunately these parts can be made pretty stable and I've found what I think is a reputable re-builder for it so I have a way forward. If things got really really out of hand I could technically put one of our motorsport diesel controllers on the engine replacing all of these ancient electronics. That would be a heck of a lot of work and cost more than the truck is worth!
I still stand by 'Trucksaurus' and wouldn't dream of replacing her. It won't be long before we're on the road again 
Beautiful Citizen you have there too!
