i just got a ecm from a junked 96 a/t really cheap. there's a tsb about ecms in maxes built before jan 95 needing an upgraded/ revised ecm. my build date is 4/04. it still has the og unit. since i got this one cheap, i thought id try it, to see if it fixes the problems im having, but i dont want to fry anything !!!!

midway lists a 95 ecm and a 96-97, so obviosly there is a diff. but if it's just a matter of accessories or slight changes, i'd try it to rule out the ecm being bad.

anybody know what differences there might be?....thanx

 

your 95 max is OBD 1 and 96 and up are OBD 2.

 

Thats not true. Mine was built in 03/94 and its OBDII.

No one has ever reported having an OBDI 95

 

my dad max is 95, its a obd 1 and my max is 96 obd 2. hey i might be wrong tho.

 

mine is obd 2...any other diff.? sensors, or other powertrain controls?

 

I had a 97 and still have the 95 and from all the work I did on them, there weren't any differences that I noticed and I did a lot of mods to both. I have the FSM's for both if you want them so you can compare all the sensors. PM me.

Is that conclusive no, but its the best I can tell you.

 

thanx. if it would do any damage, i hope they changed the plug so it wont plug in to my harness. im thinkin it will work, just bein cautious

 

All model year 1995 Maxima's are OBDII. The scan connector is located in the passenger side foot well.

1996 ECU's should work fine in 1995.

 

I thought the evap was different between 95 and 96... might trip some codes for that.

 

Plugged in and ran, but got 7 codes for the evap. system

didn't run any better.....

f/s 96-97 automatic ecm..... or trade for 95 maf

 

There are NO OBDI 4th gen Maximas. Period. They are all OBDII.


To answer the original question, yes it will work.

 

it will run, but 7 non-erasable codes for evap syst.
there is definatly a difference !!!
