I doubt the ECU is bad.
If the ABS module is bad try to get it rebuilt here. http://home.earthlink.net/~vicrocha/...vo_V70_ABS.htm

Who put the motor in?
If the ECU is fried then someone fried it.

Usually if the car runs it is good. If it was bad the car wouldn't run unless something is really wacky with it.

Also make sure that they have the main ground connected to the transmission.
