hey guys im lookin to swap my R reg ecu and lock set for my N reg ecu and lockset any body know if ill run into problems??

N reg ECU markings:-

IAW 16F.ER/2A21-A7
FIAT "500" 1.1 F.2 IMB T. .T.

(T. .T.) is that correct cos it seems a wierd designation

R reg ECU markings:-

IAW 16F.ER/6A35-AA
FIAT 500 1.1 ECE FASE 2


how long do they take to fully relearn all the way through the rev range?
do you have to rev it for it to learn as in 1000rpm for 2 mins 1500rpm for 2 mins and so on or do you just drive it? if you drive it how many miles roughly does it take?
i know you have to leave it on tickover for 2 mins for it to learn idle perameters...

might have to invest in a mckritch as well if the wife lets me!!

let me know guys i should be starting the work about tuesday cos i got a fair bit to do on her
 
both sportings mate yeah as the ecu designation suggests... code box?? explain i though that was in the ecu... where is it whats it do?
i understand theres a 'coil' round the ignition that picks up the code from the key and allows the ecu to run the motor but i didnt realise it was a seperate box

im changing the boot door but keeping the lock and i got the red key for the R reg and not the N i just figured for 45 mins of messin it might save me a hell of a lot of money further down the line
