    [Other] VS to VZ key fob question.

    As this question covers VS to VZ, I’ve posted this here, and after searching the forums I haven’t found the answer. this should be a simple question, hopefully…… can you reuse, reprogram a previously used key fob to a different bcm? I am asking this as I’m replacing the bcm in my Ute to a mid...

    VE ECM compatibility

    Further to the update: after talking to a local GM parts guy (worked for Holden since the 80's), the only No that has to match on the ECM for it to be able to be reprogrammed/cloned is the Service ID no, and further more the same ECM used in the VE/WM was also used in Colorado and craptivas and...

    VE BCM

    Update: after much stuffing around, and purchase of a MDI clone, a subscription to tech connect (tech2win & SPS) I have been able to determine the ECM is bad, with no fuel pump signal to the regulator, immobiliser is off and all other units are operational (except for the airbag, it's getting...

    VE ECM compatibility

    my VE is a 06 built series 1 V6 auto Calais, the information I’ve been getting is conflicting as to whether you have to all exactly the same numbers or just the part/service no! one of the ecm‘s I’ve been offered has the same part no, service no, and a build date one month later than mine, so...

    VE ECM compatibility

    Hi guys, when it comes to replacing the ECM in a VE which no’s are relevant in finding a compatible unit to the original? Obviously the part No , but is the service no or any other numbers needing to match the original? I have been offered two units both have the same part no and service no as...

    VE BCM

    I know what you mean, I got sick of using the generic OB2 readers so researched for an affordable but well supported unit that could be utilised across a few manufacturers. I settled on the icarsoft scanner tool, as even though it’s a US company they had a unit running Holden/Ford oz software...

    VE BCM

    Update,……. The VE now cranks! The previous owner had been trying to test the system with a test lamp and has caused one terminal lead to be loose in the connection to the anti theft module, now the BCM was getting the signal at time of testing, but I think that was because of the manipulation of...

    VE BCM

    all electrics from the affected area have been replaced, including the looms, the rest of the circuits have been tested and are fine and the ecm will operate with the airbag light on, my neighbours VE has there airbag light on and it still starts and drives. I’ve spoken with a few people and I...

    VE BCM

    Hi I re-spent the day retesting everything. fitted a full charged battery. turned the ignition on, still no sound from the fuel pump and no crank. no anti-theft lights or warnings on displays and was able to cycle the anti-theft system. First tested power at the main fuse box under the bonnet...

    VE BCM

    Have the manual and have tested the circuits/voltages, just trying to confirm that it’s not possibly something else other than my suspicions before I bite the bullet and get a new/reco bcm.

    VE BCM

    I purchased it post flood, but apparently was running and drove fine, had all its services up until the Euroa floods, just uninsured!

    VE BCM

    Hi guys, I have a 06 VE V6 Calais that has had minor fresh water flood damage, (water to the top of the trans hump), this caused shorting to the electrical system. Once cleaned and dried out car would crank and fire on start ya bastard, but fuel pump had no signal. Have since replaced everything...
