Blue Coating on ECM Board Where Chip Mounts?

[schuvwj]

Does anyone know where I can find that blue coating that was on the ECM board. This was the blue stuff we had to clean off before we installed our DR chips. Since we do not have chips anymore I would like to re-coat this area.

Thanks for Your Help!

What you are looking for is called <a href='http://www.dowcorning.com/applications/product_finder/pf_details.asp?l1=009&pg=00000027&prod=01592424&type=PROD'>"Conformal Coating"</a>. It's used to shock proof and water/corrosion proof electronics.

It usually comes in green or red. Blue indicates a certain temperature range. Best plave to find it would be an electronics supplier, FAI Active or similar store. There are a few online places you can get it, such as:

There is no need to do this it will not cause any problems, and it will not help if any one from Ford looks because the metal door was removed from the cover.

^^^What he said^^^

No need to do this, there is no covering up now, and the pins will be fine without any coating.

If ya'll had DR chips why did you take them out?im thinking of puttin mine in .is there a problem ??

[Dennis Reinhart]

There is no problem they had there EEC's flashed thats all so the chip is longer needed

Dennis about the removed metal door on the ECM cover, I'm working on that!
Hope to have a fix soon.

I just bought a spare EEC and used that cover, if they see the door is in place they will probably not look any further

That would be my guess also! I got several differant process to consider and try before I reaply the door.
