  View original topic: Cooling Fins on ECU Board

I took my ECU apart last night to investigate a rattling noise. I was pleased to find out that it was only that one of the cooling fins that had come loose. I can push it back on and it will hold OK, but I don't think it will stay on in a running, vibrating Bus. I was going to use a bit of Permatex to adhere it back to the board, but I wasn't sure how that would affect its ability to cool. Anyone else have this issue? Thanks, I'm in the home stretch of getting this POS to run!

I would use JBWeld. It would conduct the heat better and be stronger.
