Default 93 runs great for 15 minutes and then won't refire once shut off

Hi all. I'm posting for a friend not on here. The car in question drives fine when cold and once it warms up, it won't re-fire. I was told that the lights on the dash come on and vats illuminates. After sitting for a few hours or overnight, it fires up with no current error codes.

The ECM was replaced a while back with one off ebay. I'm not sure what else has been done. Car has 88k miles and is in decent shape. My buddy thinks it may be a ccm. I told him to let me do some digging and see what people think.

At one point with my car I thought I had an issue with the ccm but it wasn't. It's been a few years so I'm a bit rusty on the details. I'd just hate to see them chase as many phantom problems as I've had. Thoughts?

Check for codes, could easily be the ECM again if it is not a rebuilt unit.
