It is the primary c14 cap. If the cap fails, the ecu won't work.

catalytic aging.

When they get old they leak, overload and either stop working or blow up like a mini pipe bomb.

Capacitors fail on any electronic device over time. Capacitors don't last for ever.

Capacitors are in many electrical devices we use every day such as personal computer mother boards, tv's, radios etc.

It appears that the cap in the ecu you have has been replaced with a cap which is not the same brand/quality of the OEM cap originally used.

Generally when a capacitor fails it will damage the circuit board so badly that traces in the ecu are actually burnt so bad that they can't be re-used.
