To make sure it is an ICU overheating problem try hitting it with a shot of Freeze Spray. Available at electronics stores.

scratch Hi mate,just to be clear,have you 2 ICUs that you change over  or a large shed full. Smile
For 2 units to fail in the same way points to a problem causing this to occur. At the point of failure was the unit hotter than one would expect, poor airflow, excessive, engine heat, When unit one has cooled down then refitted does it work or not. scratch

Rick: AFAIK only the K1200 has a flat five-pin connector. The K100-series are all round five-pin connectors.

Yes of course I have been fiddling about on my K1200 and that's how I see it.
