Got opcom here. Ecu is from onyx but key is from snow white. Do we need to phone vauxhall for the 4 digit code from onyx?

[vocky]

and the transponder around the steering lock is from ......... ?

you will need the four digit code for the ecu, so from the black car.

 

then you need to match the transponder and key chips to the ecu.

Doh!!

Every thing including Steering wheel and lock is from Snow white. Ecu is from onyx. Will getting the key from onyx help?

If you can get the black cars keys you will also need the transponder from around the steering lock of the black car.

 

Plus you must remove the key chips from the white cars keys and then fit the black cars key chips into the white cars keys, otherwise the ecu will throw a wobbly with two different key chips present.

[vocky]

it really is easy, you just need the black cars matching 'ecu / transponder / key chips' and remove the original white cars key chips.

Doh. Not sure we can get the transponder back as onyx is locked in a yard... Looks like we need the code.

[vocky]

if you get the black cars ecu code then simply programme the original transponder and key chips on the white car to the black cars ecu

[Captain Vimes]

Think that's what we need to do but vauxhall can't get it till Monday now. We have an angry Stuwy now :-(

[techieboy]

I'm not sure just having the original code will solve it either. I have a feeling the ignition lock transponder might need to be blank (never programmed) to pair it up with the keys and ecu.

  Worked my ass off all week to get to a family do this weekend and even with everything.. there is no way I could have anyway!

 

so what do I need? a new barrel/transponder and the ECU pin? and then new keys (presumably they come with the barrel/transponder)

Literally built a car in two days FOR NOTHING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

What's wrong with snow white's ECU?  Sounds like installing that instead of the onyx ECU means everything would match

[Tony H]

It would have NA map.

Stewy had a stage2 SC map on his old ecu. So to save money and not have to get it all mapped again he's logically using the same ECU. I assume now the cars in the insurers compound ready to be sold on as a cat car. No chance of getting it back.

Snow Whites ecu hasn't been mapped for the sc so it wouldn't work...

[Gedi]

Ohh, I wasn't aware that onyx had been supercharged. What a bugger

[vocky]

so what do I need?

 

if you get the black cars ecu code then simply programme the original transponder and key chips on the white car to the black cars ecu

Cool thanks vocky.
