Just wondering, I've bought a brand new BCM and KEYHEAD for my VT, I've been searching for ages now but seem to get different answers.

I understand that when you buy a second hand BCM and keyhead you also need the ECU for it to be a straight swap and work straight away.

BUT

I have bought a BRAND NEW VT BCM with a brand new keyhead WITH NO ECU. On the BCM it has a label that says: PRIOR TO FITMENT RECORD SECURITY CODE FOR FUTURE USE AND DISCARD THIS LABEL. Then it has a security code number and B:code.

What do I do with these codes? Do I need to take it to Holden? Where do I go from here?

Cheers

You need to see someone who has a quality scantool such as the tech2, you just need to relink the new BCM to the ECU with the scantool and it should be right .

Thanks for the reply mate, will call a local locksmith and see if anyone is able to come out and do it for me as the car is unregistered and I don't trust driving the car. Cheers

Would probably have more luck with an auto-sparky.
