Right another stinker for you?

Is the ECU immobiliser hardware held in the ECU box - (eg: written into the software on the chips inside the ECU.) Or is it held in another box inside the car?

Once I read the code from my 1242 ECU and compare that to my 899cc, I can tell if it has an immobiliser! Or at least that's what i'm thinking

Ill think of something witty....just wait and see............wait I might not.

Superchips told me it was held in the main chip that holds the ignition / fuel map.

Oh right. Thought so, Ye olde Haynes gave no info on code blocks- and my research was finding that its in the chip anyhoo.

So this hardware that enables you to read the chip, can it also save new information to the chip?

Another day...another problem...

Well, I'm looking at a wiring diagram for a reader- I plan to analyse the code between a 899cc Non Immobiliser ECU and a 1242cc Unknown ECU.

I can get a writer put together without much difficulty I should imagine, that can write new mapped chips.

If it's any use, Superchips place a blocker board between the PCB and chip to prevent any unauthorised reading. I have a spare superchip remapped 1242 chip (minus blocker board - that's in my ecu), but it's no use to me as the immob code is different to mine. If you want it, a fiver inc P&P?

That is some use....might be interested once I get this chip programmer going...
