how to wire up immobilizer

Featured Replies

any one have any idea on how to wire in a immobilizer in .. i need to wire in one from a early type to a new type loom .. and then one from new to old .. as i have put a afh into a arosa . and the arosa engine into the polo .. and use a different ecu and so on .. any help or ideas on what best and easy way to do this ? thanks

.. also have no no dash lights when ignition is turned to the on position also the rev counter doesn't work for the 6 seconds the engine does start and run.

Could it be that the wiring in the ecu plug isn't exactly the same?

Also do the arosa's not use a crank position sensor and coil pack rather than a dizzy like the 6n? Although I'm guessing not if you have had it running

no the only diffence so far is the immobilizers different dur to different connectors on the wiring loom .. ones round and ones square also the arosa has an extra red wire.

also when i say no .. i mean i thought that there may be one or two pins that are not same so i went and got a ecu and so on that was for that loom aka vw polo and still no joy .. and not the engine as had running ish with 16v ecu and so on on other then was over fuleing and i need it for the arosa lol

Conduct any discussion of car security via PM's please and not in the public domain.

Thanks

I could understand that if it was "how do I bypass an immobiliser" but this is more of a technical question about how to wire in the standard vw immob. no info on this would help anyone wanting to bypass the immob, if I had that sort of info the last 3 conversions I've done would of been a lot easier :lol:

Thats why I've not locked it, more of a note that if it came down to binning the immob and bypassing it that it should be discussed by PM.

Thing is knowing how to wire it could still help in being able to by-pass it but it would take a pretty determined theif to do that. :lol:

I'm not wanting to steel a car I'm wanting my car to run .. i understand where your coming from all thought even thought been given help nothing has seemed to of worked so to steel a car would take a lot of wiring and undoing dash before moveing .. lol .. still have no running car and there only the one guy mclovin who seems to have a idea of what could be problem ... thanks for all help thought sure can work it out between us and fellow members :)

The only reason I know anything about this is from bodging AFH's into early polo's :lol:

Tbh tho I'm pretty stumped now, I've gotta go shopping in a min but when I get back i'll get a cup of tea on the go and have a think, see if there's something obvious I'm missing :thumbsup:

you are jeopardising the security of your car by asking pepole how to wire up your immobilizer lol

Why is he? What are they going to do with the info in this thread? The engine will not run without the immobiliser connected and functioning as it should. There is nothing what so ever in this thread that could jeopardise the security of his car
