Does the Hdi ECU and gearbox ECU use CAN bus, if so, what would need to be transferred with it to make it run?
Would it need the body control module, ignition switch and ABS, or can it function with it's own CAN and the appropriate 120 ohm terminators.
I needed to keep all the engine harness, of which theres little as its multiplexed, harness to the BSM in the car which incorporates the immobiliser, and some of the harness to the steering colum for the wiring for the transponder pickup ring. Theres no kick down cable on the AL4, but instead CAN buss comms cables between the gearbox ecu and engine ecu. Most of the harness is engine and engine bay located, with as stated a small amount to the BSM and of course power to the lift pump that would need installing in the fuel tank. Im fairly confident that the small amount of extra cableing would fit along side exsisting xm harnesses.. As long as I get the transponder circuitry all connected so it unlocks the engine ecu the rest should be fine
The transponder pickup is a simple clip on thing.. No ignition switch needs changing..
