Hi,
Dave Stevens is right on with his comments as I have read that the 1989’s have these issues.
I found some information that covers a lot of cars and you will want to check out them all because they will give you options of how to test and maybe even repair the problem.
This is a lot of information at once, but it’s not as hard, if you follow and you stay on the one car you are concerned with. I tried to put them on here in some sort of order, in logical steps.
It’s a lot like a spiders web and can lead you to go in several directions.
I hope this helps as it requires a different skill levels, especially at the end.

He describes what Dave suggests you to do first.
It’s a great site for other information that can correct and supplement the Bentley, so look it all over!

Broken down by years and seems to be accurate from what I have seen in parts yards.
The chart talks about a pink label ECU being really bad on some years. Yellow on other years.
White labels being better.

This is a high end skill set Solution but fills in what Dave Stevens is saying about what fries!
Good luck
