    You have to match "new" ecu to car. The new ecu must be resetted. If you bought it not resetted you'll need it's pin code to reset it. Then you?ll have to program it into car. You will need the pin code of the car for this. You can do this procedure with op-com. This tool will give you the pin from the car by reading eeprom from dash. You'll find a detailed description for all this in the forum. Search for "op-com immo guide.

    Thanks for the fast answer.I read Op com immo guide.If I understand correctly,i need security code to reset the new ECU,but wich security code?of my car or from the donor car.
    If I need from donor, i'm in trouble,dealer from scrapyard has not.

    You can use opcom to read the vin in donor ECU and get the code from the dealer or you must read the 95320 inside the ECU and get the pin from there but it is important to get the pin for donor ecu before you try to program the donor ecu because it is easy to put security wait time on.Good luck
    Love this forum

    Thanks m8,
    I'll try to read VIN from donor,and pay a bottle of Jack Daniels to an Opel employee willing to do a little trick.
    Wife's car needs to run ASAP,fastfood is not an option for me.

    As stated you ned pin from donor car to reset "new" ecu. Then you will need the pin of' your car (slow food??) in order to program the new ecu into your car.

    Default Opel Corsa C ECU change

    Have you got an oscilloscope? Scope the ignition coil current and secondary ignition. I think possible bad quality new coil pack.
