Re: Modded Marea Weekend - check it out!!!
Fitted the coupe turbo ecu today, keycode light wont go out, and it wont start, any thoughts?, am i doing something stupid?
edit
i just thought, i probably need to disconnect the battery and then fit it, otherwise it wont reset itself to the new car

Re: Modded Marea Weekend - check it out!!!
yes its a known issue when doing the turbo conversion, the immobaliser and interfere, in your case its because the key codes dont match, do you have the keys to go with the ecu?
if you do just pop the chips out of them and fit to your keys.
if not you need to find a way to disable it.
oh, and i imagen the turbo ecu is plug and play

Re: Modded Marea Weekend - check it out!!!
chears bud, im well off needing one anyways.
Re: Modded Marea Weekend - check it out!!!
Turbo ECU is defo not plug and play as far as I am aware.
The TURBO models have several more sensor than on an N/A engine and control one or more funtcions say like EBV (pressure blowoff valve??) for turbo spooling etc..
As mentioned by Bulldog the ECU's are also coded to your key's, so you need the original keys and locks for that particular ECU or you need your keys recoded and I believe you will need the RED KEY that goes with the ECU you've bought.
Best bet would be to have a remap of the Marea ECU done, and here again I understand that the 147 model Marea is unmappable and will need a piggy back system like the Dastek unit. As far as I know the 155 model Marea is mappable but not sure.
Your engine is a 147 model so apperently unmappable??
How about buying an ECU and RED KEY for a 155 model and getting that remapped??
Anyway hope this helps and good luck with it all
Your a braver man than I..

Re: Modded Marea Weekend - check it out!!!
the 147 ECU is not mappable, you can however fit a replacment chip to it. Celtic Tuning will be the people to talk to.
dunno if the 155 ECU will fit....

Re: Modded Marea Weekend - check it out!!!
Clay as a couple of others have pointed out your car is defo' a 147 Marea.
The 155 were only available from 2000 and then only for a couple of years, they then became the 150 Marea.
155 & 150 Marea have a plastic cover with speacial plastic cam carriers.
The 147 Marea's have an all aluminium head, carriers and spark plug cover.
Just because the chip may not be remappable it doesn't mean to say that you can't completely replace the chip with an after market version which may well then be remappable.
It's only over when the fat lady sings or when the wife says it is....
