Default Dropping power at ECU

As a follow-up to my post here:
https://forums.audiworld.com/a4/msgs/1697774.phtml

I just talked to the dealer and they are tracing the engine cut-out problem to a bad ground or dropping power at the ECU. Since it is an APR modded ECU it isn't covered under warranty and I'm stuck with the tab for 3 hours of troubleshooting.

I called APR and the person I spoke with indicated they wouldn't warranty a faulty ECU, they only warranty the work they do to the ECU. I can send them the ECU and they will check it out.

I'm not sure what my next steps will be, but I just wanted to give an update.
