Hyster H50xm forklift

I have a 2000 model forklift that was diagnosed to have a bad ecu.
Unfortunately they are no longer available. I hate to scrap a good machine but I have called a number of companies and can't find any that will test or work on it
Any suggestions appreciated
TIA

Showing items 1 - 3 of 3 results.
Cleaned ground wires and electrical connections and machine started and ran fine. Put the components that were removed back in place and it won't start. No power to the injector.
Any ideas

I believe it's a 3.0 gmc engine. The local dealer diagnosed the ecu problem. I'm not sure it's accurate or if they wanted to sell me a new forklift. The machine has no power to the fuel pump.

Bad ecu?? What engine is in the truck?? I'm guessing either c240 Isuzu it m420g mazda? What is the exact problem as compared to the later ft range the xm is basic on the electronics and I cannot see it as being unrepairable
