I haven't heard of them going bad on 96 and up vehicles.The ones that did on 95 and below were from wires shorting out in the bad wiring harness.
Ebay motors though has alot of computers for sale,I would try them and Ebay U.K. also.Now there are fuses that can blow in the ECU.Remove coffin like lid on passenger side.Look at panels for blowed fuses.
