Must try to rely on buyer stupidity but so far that hasn't really worked

Anyone else seen the VY cluster going for $1100? Do you know whats even funnier about that? Is it shows that 3 people have bought it over the years. Like honestly! WHAT WERE THEY THINKING! You can get a brand new one from Holden for less!

I think there is 2 different types for the E77 & E69 VE models SIDI & non!

Yeah, the CAN header should already be set to 7E0. So just send off: 021A9A

And hopefully thats all Ill need to get into the rest of the menus! Thanks mate! Grabbing that info on the other ECUs would be great too! Can start moving onto those.

Id assume there wont be really new additions into these controllers diagnostic wise, but Id rather be certain that everything is performed the same.

Can anyone let me know what sort of VE ecu this is:

Can only see the serial.

Yeah I know! seen few odd bits sold and thought WTF!

Imagine what 4blok thinks ! Fuck I sold it, quick wrap it ha ha

That ECM you had the link to Tazzi, is definitely a VE V6, just not sure it's SIDI or stock, but I'm sure I've seen the prefix before & can give you more info for!

I have a 3.6 sidi, if you tell me where prefix is il confirm for you

I found this quite useful:

With sending 02 1A 9A to the listed pcm's I got the following response....

E38 YRPS (serv. no. 12619077) = 7E8 04 5A 9A 81 17 AA AA AA

E38 YPMT (serv. no. 12617568) = 7E8 04 5A 9A 81 11 AA AA AA

E55 = 7E8 03 7F 1A 78 00 00 00 00

E69 SIDI AALT(Serv. no. 12617230) = 7E8 03 7F 1A 78 00 00 00 00

E77 non SIDI LHBP(Serv. no. 92193637) = 7E8 03 7F 1A 78 00 00 00 00


Seems very weird that the E55 hd the exact same response to the E69 & E77 whether there SIDI or not.

With that PCM you had a link to it's definitely a VE SIDI at a guess probably late 2008 as I have the same PCM here that's a brick ATM & is exactly the same service no's & prefix but teh serial on mine starts with 4919 as that 1 is 4917, so guessing it's a bit older than my brick!

I hope all that helps!

Brillant! Thanks mate!
The first two are very useful. The next three are useless unfortunately. That "7F" answer either means "Nope not working" or "Im slow, give me a sec to send it!"
Normally, when a 7F response occurs for these "1A" requests, generally the actual answer comes afterwards as a multiline answer.

I might have to send you a modified version that lets you look for a certain amount of frames back. Eg, VIN would need 4 messages back.. 1=7F message and next 3 are the vin.

So looks like GENIV ecus use an identifier of 81 11 to 81 17. At least I know what range to start at with the tech2 to find bits and pieces.
