Default Reflashing ECU

Does anyone have the capability to reflash an ECU or know where I could get it done at? I live in the upstate of South Carolina but I am willing to take a good drive. Also expect to pay for this to happen. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Re-flashing?
WHY?
If its because you need to swap an ECU from another due to the security system block then I would recommend using SOS Diagnostics in Oregon.

Just make sure that you are using a donor ECU from a similar D2 year etc.
The reason is that occasionally due to the vin spread you may not be able to scan access the ECU correctly at a later date for diagnostic work.

I am having an issue with an oxygen sensor and the heater part of it being run continuisly. There is a thread by disco11brandon about oxygen sensor trial and error that describes my problem exactly. A solution was never posted and I haven't been able to contact the original poster. The reflash was the direction he was heading and the only thing I have left to try.

I was getting an O2 sensor heater code and found a wire had backed out of the sensor plug. It's the pink wire, on the truck-side plug for the O2 sensor, if that makes sense.

All of the wires and connections are good. I can check the live data with an autocom and ultragauge and see that the bank 2 sensor 1 doesn't "act" right. The sensors from AB only last a week. Tried several. The BOSCH sensor is currently installed and has lasted the longest but is starting to read differently than the other bank. It doesn't fluctuate nicely like the other. It takes a wile to go from .45 up to around .8 and slowly moves up and down where the othe jumps from .8 to .1 rather quickly. I posted the link (I think) to the Disco11Brandon thread. https://landroverforums.com/forum/di...=oxygen+sensor
