Hey guys , dont know if this is for here , if its not my bad. So long story short , have a friend with Kia Sorento 2.5 crdi 0281010954 1037366276 edc15c7 , 2 years ago he went to some diagnostics and from that point till now(2 years now) his Glow plug light is aways on. Glow plugs are working ok everything is spot on , car starts and runs . So he asked me to look at it , the problem is with the eeprom or atleast i got to that conclusion while testing several things. IF i run the ori eeprom everything is fine but no matter what i do to it the glow plug light is aways on - thus the eeprom is corupted in my eyes. I found an ori eeprom from a different ecu but same model vehicle etc etc . When i use that as soon as i get the ignition on 2 sec pass and VOALA glow plug light is off.... this proves my point about the corupted eeprom(or i think so) but cant start cause of immo . So i have 2 options - 1. Fix corupted ORI eeprom 2.Immo off the other eeprom and use that(which i dont know if it is right) ......

Attaching both ori eeproms . Anyone wana help ?

Thank u for trying to help , i tried ur eeprom but it is the same thing . Car starts but glow plug light is on.... I guess the second option with the working eeprom and IMMO off on it is my best bet.... or idk.

Ok quick update , got to the point were i was able to transfer my keys to the new eeprom and now car starts and glow plug lights is off , but up on reading ecu errors there are allot .... I guess this is because of the different eeprom ... anyone ?
