Hello- I have an automotive engine computer which is called an E.C.M. that I want to recycle.  I know where to recycle @ Best Buy.  I want to know if I can recyle one or not.

Hey there, Tom_798,

Welcome to our community forum. I know it's not always easy to find somewhere to safely dispose of a computer. We can recycle quite a lot of different electronics, I'd be happy to help you figure this out. How large is this computer? Does it have oil or grease on it? I look forward to hearing back from you!

Hello,

The computer module is 8- 1/2 X 6 X 1- 1/2 inches. It is clean and dry. I would like to know what they would do with it. I DO NOT want it thrown out. It is a module that can be remanufactured.

Even if they did take it, they would most likely just properly dispose of it... as best buy doesnt sell car parts.....

Hello, Tom,

With a part like this, it's more than likely the part will be disposed off in a manner that attains itself to all recycling standards. Since it is an automotive part, it is unlikely that it would be remanufactured. 

Best,
