Hi
This car came to me as a non runner after the engine and all the modules being swapped from a do not car...
The modules also came from a car with different options, which I had to get them coded correctly...
Follow me on this video to find out what was the problem and how to resolve it.
Hope you enjoy the video.
Any questions or comments put them below.
Like always, thank you for watching!
Looks like this corsa has been messed with a fair bit, so the original issue I'd not like to guess! I've had loads and loads of Corsa C and D brought to me with the immo light on and not running. Resetting and Re-applying the security code to all the core modules including the bcm, cluster, engine, airbag module seems to make them run again. I think when someone tries to start them with a flat battery something gets messed up between the BCM and the Engine ECU. First one I did back in 2008 took me a while to figure out, but since then done loads and loads, maybe on average 1 a month. Anyway good work as always, I like your attitude and approach! Every day is a school day.
Yes... flat batteries make a mess...
I actually have videos coming on that exact issue...😉
Thank you for watching and for your comment!
Great video as always Luis. You mentioned that everything except the door lock was changed. If so, how lazy is that! It would not have taken much time to retrieve the lock, so the key could work in emergencies. Hopefully the have at least removed it. Add that the transponder pin was bent due to clumsy handling. You are a perfectionist.
Thank you for watching and for your comment, really appreciated!

Fair play you get everyone's problems and you get it sorted well done that man 😁

Thanks!
I think MaxiSys would have done all that without the need to change computers and programs. Though I loved seeing you tinker with something different than the Autel, it gave me a new perspective.
Hi
Yes... the Autel would have done it!
Thank you for watching and for your comment!
No. Thank you for your great videos.
17:03 we speak here about different engine codes, 2004 chassis number never had Z10XE, you tried to enter Z10XEP, tech2win is so smart to not let you in.
Beginning: on this car, ecu speaks with mdi with immo as in between module, as you found out.
V-BUS is the HS-CAN, BCM is telling you, hey, I see more modules on the bus then I am programmed to see. The only variable for you there is with or without ABS.
From 2004 on, ABS is on CAN on this car. BCM is from 2004 on and its looking for ABS.
Why isn't the engine MIL lamp on? Covered with black silicone?
Thank you for watching and for your comment!
Wow, seriously...lost key and broken gasket they have to change almost everything and did a lot of mess, too. You are really good in troubleshooting and did a GREAT job. You really rock! By the way, if you don't mind asking you, what OBD scanner is compatible with my 1998 Opel Tigra 1.6 Manual Trans., Petrol X16XE series. I live here in the Philippines. Very much appreciated. Thank you.
On a budget, Op-com should do the work...👍👍👍
Thank you for your reply. Very much appreciated. Regards and more power.
Any particular version. Thanks.
Look for the latest...😊
So in order to get the dash pin number, u first need to adjust the KM/Miles to do so? Or click the "read security code" instead right?
Yes... mileage has nothing to do with pin code...
Thank you for watching and for your comment!
Bingo..... Amazing detective work again mate

I think that someone removed the bulb of the check engine light on the dash you put in the car, because it should light up when you turn the ignition on, together with the "spanner" light.
Correct!
Thank you for watching and for your comment!
Tommaso Bocci it’s not removed, it would give MIL faultcode in ecu. Black silicone over led 100%

Hello, I changed the cluster display on my 2003 Corsa and the car doesn't start, any help would do me a great good. Thanks
You need to reset the cluster with it's security pin, and then program it back using your car's pin...

Hi
I just bought a 2010 Vauxhall Zafira Z19dth with a blown engine, I replaced the engne with a similar engine from a Z19dth van. I tried starting and It will not start, it wount even try to start or run on Easystart, I'm assuming I have done something stupid or maybe not, does the ECU need coding with the replacement engine
I have tried looking at the faults with a Solus but its a bit of a mystery, are there some other simple checks I do....is the tech 2 software available to run on a laptop
Hi
No, the engine should start just fine, providing the ecu is the original from the car... no coding needed...
Now, should not be a mystery to communicate with the ecu, what happens exactly when you try to scan the car?
Just go over the plugs around the engine... it is easy to either miss something, or swap plugs... I have seen it in the past...
So, check, double check, and triple check everything...😉
Thank you for watching and for your comment!
Brilliant as usual
Thanks!

34:38 you are in the wrong ecu type. Opcom does not care, but there is no cruise control there.

Facelift Corsa C's (2004) 53 plates I'm sure introduced some limited canbus wiring replacing some k line wiring hence no comms with ecu. Engine codes also changed 2004 (53). It is also the reason why you can't replace the earlier CDR2005 cd player with a CD30 or vice versa.
There’s no cruise control on this car, that’s why it’s giving you the fault, You changed it from not present, to present hence the fault code, you prob know this now though lol
😋
Indeed...
Thank you for watching and for your comment!
I’ve need help ,your mad help with 2 bsi, and have forgotten my pass words,I hate computers.still enjoying videos.
I own a Corsa C for about what ...6 years now. I own opcom 2010, 2012, 2015 and 2017 versions. I own genuine tech2, genuine mdi and genuine mdi2. I can say, I know Corsa C like the back of my palm. Reversed engineered about half of the canbus now.
Little advice: never ever do program variant config of BCM with opcom. If you have the curiosity to read the config with mdi, you will see the config totally different. I program ESP8 with opcom, I find ESP3.4 with MDI, I program AC with climate control, I find AC unregulated with MDI.
I don't know if you want to or not, but you can always contact me for Vauxhall stuff, from 2001 to 2008, I'll be happy to share my knowledge so you can skip some puzzling.
Hi
I will if I need... Thanks!
However, the puzzling is part of the learning... I guess...
Yes, Op-com can be a bit inaccurate sometimes...

Hello! I have a promblem i can't fix, just for you... Suzuki Splash, 2008, 1,0 engine. Just change the clutch, remove the ECU was the only thing I've done with electricity. When i get back the car together, the ign. key was on CONTACT position, when at last I connect the battery. So i turn of and then on the ignition and.... NOTHING happens!
I make e bridge to start the engine wit wire over starter solenoid. The engine starts, but stips after second... Then i check the starter cables - all is fine. U start the starter fron the relay place where fuses are not n the motor room, same way i started fuel pump...all works fine, fuel, battery on place....
Check again for the connection of the pins from ECU they are like new...
And all the time symbol "padlock over car" is blinking. The opens and xloses the doors, I put there new battery...
Three days the car is no start ....
I wait the car to recognise the key for hours...
Immo still blinks ... What can be?
Check everything you touched...
Specially power and grounds...
You must have missed something and nor put it back...
Thank you for watching!
Can I get a copy of the op. Com software from you thanks
I just got everything from another corsa dash immobiliser, lcu, ecu and key fitted in 45mins car started been going for 2years now all for 50quid feck all this testing etc
Good for you...
👍👍👍
I have a customer corsa that has come to me. He told me that the battery went flat, so he replaced the battery, and then the car wouldn't start it starts up and cuts out no spanner light. It's a 1.0 auto the only light's working on the cluster are the engine management light. So I scanned the car with Opcom it says to me that there is a miss match with security code from ecu to the instrument cluster. It is the original cluster. I checked the connection on the wiring harness to the cluster scanned again it gives same code so I read the eprom on the cluster got the code for it. I don't want to put this code in incase it maybe wrong. Any idea please
Hi
You can use any code, but that means you will have to recode the entire car...
Find out what is the actually original pin from it, and use that one... this providing the car has not been messed with in the past...
👍👍👍
@@LMAutoRepairs The pin has come from the cluster it has never been appart before the cluster has never been replaced nor Ecu or Bcm.
@@AliMackMechanical
In that case, reset the cluster and recode it...

Great video - just shows how difficult to fix when someone else has been messing around.

Hello, i know that this is an old video, but...
My car is opel astra h 2007 1.7 cdti 92kw, so my question is witch is better to use Tec2 or opcom? Where should i invest, becaus i have plans to buy astra j petrol?
Op-com will do petty much everything... and is cheaper...😉
Thank you for watching!
@@LMAutoRepairs Thanks.
Hi sar
Hy mate.
I see you got globaltis and tech2win on the first laptop.
In globaltis if you get security acces, do you still need for the pin.
If yes, what does that security acces from globaltis?
37:27 reason for faultcode, car is missing the 4th wire from stalk to BCM. As simple as that.
Thanks... the problem with the cruise control was never the main focus of this video, neither I or the garage that asked to look at the car, was interested in that...
I have put very little effort into it...
👍👍👍
Why not a maxi sys?
Z10XE ecu never had cruise control as an option. Yes, you can activate it in BCM but the ecu will show BCM the middle finger.
Z10XEP ecu had the cruise control as an option, but your garage went the cheap route to fit Z10XE engine instead, because it is cheaper. Anyhow, this car never had cruise from factory.
Thanks!
👍👍👍
Hi there just wanted to know where about is the bcm located
Behind glove box...

Thanks so much🫶🏾@@LMAutoRepairs

A garage that would swap a complete engine then swap all modules instead of just using the key and immo that they already have to sort a lost key from the original setup just have to be cowboys so you can't really trust them to have done everything correctly with their install.
I'd have just put it all back orig, used the new key, barrel and immo module. Unless it needs ECU swap if one engine is XEP and other is XE. Changed the pins on the 3 original modules that need it to the new one with OpCom. No messing with programming or variant coding. You have far more patience than me m8.
At start of video there's no engine warning light on the dash so either bulb missing from clocks or no Comms to ECU. First thing to sort is ECU Comms. Then any kind of Vauxhall immo fault you first have to look at live data for the security wait time being set. If it is then even the correct pin code won't even work for coding. When coding just make sure a charger is connected when doing the clocks - they need higher voltage for coding to work. Apart from bent pins Vauxhall immo modules can fail for the fun of it. Nearly as often as the failure of the ECUs.
The cruise thing likely to be wire missing from loom and/or wasn't available for that particular ECU.
Initially no comms to the ECU because the comms path from diagnostic socket goes through the immo module and actually the TMS chip inside it - it's not straight in and out to get to the ECU. No direct connection from OBD socket to ECU on this one.
The car with the spanner through it isn't a immobilizer light as such. It is when it's flashing. When solid it shows electrical fault on engine. At ignition on if it comes on and goes out there are no engine electrical faults. If it stays on till car is started this means there is a pending electrical fault that isn't serious enough as yet for the ECU to put the proper engine warning light on.
As always a good video. Keep it up.
Thanks!

Hi my8 my opel corsa c 1.7 dti has stop starting i have to push it or put in some fluid spry it to have it start once it starts it runs perfect i put in new glow plugs and tested them for power they are on wtf could it be some times it starts perfect by its own
Any trouble codes stored?
Live data, does show anything out of the ordinary?
👍👍👍
@@LMAutoRepairs well have it scanned in the morning and let you know i have 6 pins on my ecu could this be the problem once the car starts is ok drives. Fine is just the starting is a pain have to push it or spry fluid in the intake thanks my8
6 pins?
I am confused...🤔
@@LMAutoRepairs yeah on my ecu theres 6 broken pins snapped like no contact

Buttons on steering wheel are for radio controls not cruise control
I dont believe cruise control was ever fitted to corsa c

Corsa C with ESP never had TC disable button(s). Nothing.

What was the difference between first diagnostic software you used and the second one ? And why first on wasn’t good enough?
Thanks
Hi
The first is the OEM stuff... the second Op-com... is not that the second is better, actually the OEM is way more comprehensive etc... but the second is capable of reading the pin and other stuff that the first one is not...
Thank you for watching!
What does it mean when that security/immobilizer light stays on the whole time not even blinking.
Usually service required... or some other faults...
Scan the car and see what is in there...

Can you do it this operation just opcom
Or mdi + opcom
And what the methods from reprograming ecu whit GM mdi

Even MaxiSys could most likely to all this...
