   help plz guys, have fitted vtr lump today inc ecu, engine loom, immo box.
   turns over nicely but dont seem to have a spark which think is due to immo as light on dash continues to flash for long time with ignition on.
   any ideas ?? i am a mechanic but hopelfully some1 on here can point me in the right direction
   ecu did run the engine fitted as came from a complete donor car
   thanks in advance

   ecu is locked, did you unlock it prior to removal from the donor car?

   does it need unlocking if all wiring ecu immo the same and did run the engine before?
   
   
   how or where to get it unlocked ?
   cost ?
   what does the 'unlocking' actually do in the ecu?

   Send a pm to CAM on here who unlocks ecu`s,unlocking removes any security features from the ecu.

   Yes mate the ecu is locked therefore your car is a non starter.
