X16xe immobiliser

[nathan87]

Hello

I've recently done an x16xe conversion at the weekend but was told it was a c16xe which it's not so I'm having immobiliser issues

I'm going to ordering a matching ecu, transponder and chip

Does anyone know how to go about wiring the transponder in?

If you have an x16xe loom there will be a plug on it for the key ring( immob detect) near the ecu,

You will need a wire small blue/red iirc that wires to your vss (gearbox)

I got a 3 pin plug spare? And yeah there's a small red/blue wire still

I don't have a vss, I have a mechanical drive box

You'll need a VSS. When you come to a stop and dip the clutch the car will cut out if you don't have one fitted.

The VSS goes to the immobiliser pickup.

Am I able to use one from a 1.2 spi?

I believe so yes

There is a thread in articles about this conversion,

Where southie got that pic, you'll need the vss on the x16xe

I linked the article yesterday when he was on about his ecu... here it is again... have a good read through it as pretty much every question your asking will be will be answered CLICKYME

I've now got my vss and plug for the pick up. Ecu pick up and chip are on there way too me

Now just got 2 questions, on the plug for the pick up there's red and blue wires, does it matter which 1 goes to vss or vice versa.

And as for the ecu light I don't have one on my clocks, do I actually need it or should i wire it to another bulb that's not used like the choke bulb?

Got all the new bits and wired them and I'm still having the same problem?

Problem is now sorted, thanks for all your help
