    Insignia engine ECM

    Hi all,

    Got a bit of a problem.. Insignia 10 plate. 160 cdti version.... edu18?? dead ecu, know its dead as remapper unfortunately looked at wrong pinout for it...

    We're going to source another ecu but need to know if its coded with a pin code like the edu16's or wether it needs the VCI code wiping and how we're going to pair it to the car its going in?

    cheers for any advice.

    Dean


    doh, thread title should be ecu/ecm

      Never had to look at swapping an ECM, not sure if they are security coded or vin locked or both?

      All I can find on TIS is


      Prepare control unit for removal (new SPS-function):
      - This function is only required before removing an ECU from a
      vehicle.
      - Not all control units need to be prepared before removal.
      - In TIS2Web, select "SPS" application and select "reprogram ECU".
      After entering vehicle data and VIN, select the prepare control
      unit for removal and follow the screen prompts.

      Programming:
      - Most new control units require programming. This function is also
      used for reprogramming.
      - In TIS2Web, select "SPS" application and select "reprogram ECU".
      After entering vehicle data and VIN, select the appropriate
      programming function and follow the screen prompts.

      Configuration and Setup (New SPS-function):
      - Some control units require a configuration and setup after
      programming.
      - In TIS2Web, select "SPS" application and select "reprogram ECU".
      After entering vehicle data and VIN, select the appropriate
      configuration and setup function and follow the screen prompts.

      Immobilizer Learn (New SPS-function):
      - The BCM and the ECM require an immobilizer learn after the
      "configuration and setup" -function.
      - In TIS2Web, select "SPS" application and select "reprogram ECU".
      After entering vehicle data and VIN, select the "immobilizer learn
      function" and follow the screen prompts.

      If doing other makes than forget mdi get j2534 device sae aproved and do nearly all makes
      When i got mdi was thinking its good investement but when volvo bmw or anything else rolls in especially ford than you will find out what i mean
      Mdi 1.5k ford vci 1.5k but you can spend 1.5k on cardaq or snapon pro3 and do them all with one device
