So if you buy the ecm also buy the bcu from the same vehicle.would this work,since they have already been introduced to each other.
The only certain thing with that setup is that the engine will run and not stop after it was started but in this case the BCU needs to be programmed to fit your vehicle's equipment(key fobs, warning lamps, odometer, alarm settings, etc) also it's not guaranteed that you'll not need to reset addaptive values too as to make it run faultless .... better buy a nanocom than another ECU + BCU cos at least that will pay for itself in no timeQuote:

Handy bit of kit!
Hey battler,, what pointed to the ecm?
or did one bank just fail... ;) :)
Nice work mate. Does the Nanacom come with an instructional manual that is more than generic? Cheers
ive got a nanocom, the instruction are great. very detailed. you can get them from the website to look thoughQuote:

So I put my 4.6 ECU I got from a 04 4.6 Disco in the states and the code went. Hasn't returned since and that was about 4 months ago so it was definitely the ECU.
