linking s/h ecu to immobilizer zafira

Post by jca »

Hi guys just wondering if any body has any idea how to over come my problem I'm trying to fit a s/h ecu to a holden Zafra because the one has blown the fuel pump circuit I have the immobilizer code to suit the Vin of the car I'm working on and to suit the Vin that the s/h ecm come from the key is linked to the immobilizer and vehicle cranks and fires but dosnt run the ecm has incorrect immobilizer key but it just locks me out if I use the code to suit the Vin from the s/h ecm because the immobilizer is want the old code

Using a full security set is the easyiest way (key, reader and ecu), then no linking required. (make sure the calibration is the same though..)

Using tech2 and tis2web linking an old ecu is easy.

Hope this helps

yep, sure would, the vin in the old ECU will stop it from over-riding the calibration and link though... The only way to fit a second hand ecu is to do a full ecu reset before removing it from the original car (I'll stand corrected on that if someone knows another way)

Yeah I think if the scan-tool does a full reset then use tis access to do a write from vin it should be fine, I did this with 2nd hand VZ E55 controllers.
