I need to replace the ECU on my 1999 Honda Accord EX 4Cyl. The local Honda dealer suggested 37820-PAA-L50 as the part number.

I''''m looking for a used ECU coz the new one costs like a million bucks . I''''ve found couple of ECUs on eBay with 37820-PAA-L61 and L60 part numbers. And the sellers claim it will definitely fit my car.

Can you please confirm if I can use 37820-PAA-L60 or L61 on my car.

Thanks in advance
Indy49

But, those part numbers should be interchangeable, the part you really care about is the PAA part, Honda ECUs have a PXX numbering system.

live2rice's photo gallery 		interesting, so your saying you took a ECU from the junkyard and put it in your accord? cause with ludes that cant be done without taking the ignition system with it.

If you get a key from the donor car, I think theres a way to make it work by adding your keys.  But I dont know the details of how to do that...
