Hi folks new on today hoping for some help
recently aquired cinq sx 900cc, drive it from mid lincs to mansfield no probs a couple of days ago, 2 keys supplied (standard ignition keys) no others red blue or remote keys/fobs.
i have stuffed up my ecu by thinking i could program my infra red watch with it ( i use it to open central locking on a citroen zx so why not any other)
and i think my ecu has taken umbridge at this and gone tits up.
my present ecu part number is IAW 6F.SO fiat 500 on an ecu list website this comes up as for a fiat cinq 900 sx with all the same numbers and letters that my ecu has but i have been advised that if it says 500 on my ecu then a another 500 is what i must replace it with, the fiat 500 on this list has a different part number

questions
1) replace ecu but does it matter if i replace it with a 500 or 900 my cinq is 899cc
2) to decode if poss (pre 95 cinqs do not have red keys or key codes)
3) is it possible to have one of its chips replaced with something that can get me going.
i have been ringing round several places already inc fiat and they all seem a bit befuddled as to what has happened.
advice will be appreciated
many thanks
