I don't think the computer will throw a code for itself. Just find one to try it out, before you go out buying one.

You checked the wires running to it. What about the fuses? Relays under the hood?

What FCD are you running? You are running a FCD, aren't you? emoji

How does the ECU get noisy? Smell anything burnt near it?

It could be, but the only way to tell would be to troubleshoot it down. If all your wiring and fuses check out, you might try powering the fuel pump directly (as in direct power from battery on your own). If the pump primes then, you know it's something with the wiring or the electrical system. You could probably find a coil to swap out and try easier than an entire ECU, but then again, if it's the ECU, why did it go bad? Unless you can fix the cause, you will waste any resources you invest into a remedy.

Good luck with it.
