MSD80 ecu

Hello,
I am trying to find someone who has some knowledge of the msd80 ecu. My issue is with the BSD communications on this ecu. I have the tools to solder and replace chips on the ECU however I'm trying to figure out what components /ic need to be replaced on the board of the ECU to restore BSDD communications. I would also be very grateful if someone could provide the board circuit diagrams/schematics for this ecu.

Do you have any other DME related issues? The BSD communication line failing with no other issues would be pretty uncommon. I was chasing BSD issues for whole month, turned out to be a loose wire in the water pump connector. BSD diagnosis procedure? Unplug your water pump, alternator, battery sensor and oil quality sensor, then plug one in and see if u still have a BSD error after clearing codes and waiting 1 minute. If not go to the next component. Which ever one cause the code needs replaced. Also check all the connectors at each of those components, the BSD wire is a purple one.

I did the same procedure and have no other DME faults. The only thing I didn't do was reset the code in the DME while I was testing each part. I will try this and see if resetting the code each time does anything. And my water pump and alternator were recently replaced so that might very well be the fault.
