My car is a vx220..when i start up the engine the ecu light comes on showing the code 0601 which apparently is a checksum errorcode. Got local vauxhalls dealer to look at it..turns out the ecu has the most upto date software. They couldnt find anything elsewrong.when the ecu is on I have no accelerator until the engine warms up enough then i can cancel it and drive.when the weatheris cold it can take 10-15 minutes before the ecu light stays of after cancelling it with my OBD reader. In warm weather the ecu light is only on for short periods. Like 2-3 mins..so cold affects it more so not sure how its an ecu issue.recently had the plugs changed and afterwards no ecu light onfor the next week.then sudenly back on one day ? and has been ever since.this s**t has been going on 3 yrs.had it in 3 garges and an auto electrician..all useless
