I'm looking into replacing my ECM. Not many companies handle these anymore. Prices all over as well. From $100 to $400 !! Seems like Cardone and Blue Streak Electronics are the two that pop up the most, but there's a couple of vendors I'd never heard of that work on these but they are the really high priced ones.
I'm not sure exactly what they do when fixing these, just find the bad part and replace or really go through them and replace all known failure parts. Hate wasting money but would rather spend on a reman from a vendor that knows from the past what usually fails in these units and gets replaced as well.
 
I've picked up 2 so far for under $20 each. Standard used to stock them, I forget the Standard part numbers. You have to figure out the right interchange number for your computer based on the year.

From what I've seen, having them apart, is it looks like someone checks the circuit board and does a terrible job re-potting.

The one I'm running now still had the factory potting and someone just laid a thick layer of potting over it, which separated from the original potting and made a hard jello mess inside. I pulled it all out and threw it away. I suppose it could have disrupted something in there.
