So yeah idunno I was driving home from work when suddenly lost power and poor idle. I popped the hood and found maf harness to be cracked/broken. So I reconnected it as tight as I could to make it home. Then about 16miles later it happens again but slightly different. I popped the hood and maf harness still secure. I get back in the car and I smell burnt diodes. Look at the ecu and no red light. Then I see smoke from the ecu. So I had to call a ride, grab the f150 and tow it home

I found it to be pin 45 on the ecu which is ignition right? Why would that blow so suddenly? Ive been driving it for about 3weeks with no troubles. I know I need a new ecu at this point but any advice would be so great.
