PASSAT B6 ESL FAILURE ,PROBLEMS ON PROGRAMMING

[12manux]

Hi guys.I m working on a 06 Passat b6 1.9 TDI with failure on esl.Basically when i got the car the ignition won t turn on and the yellow steering wheel would come on the dash also no comunication with imobiliser.
I got a used elv from scrap yard,installed.Now the car turn on ignition and i get comunication with immobiliser.I got the pin from engine ecu with FVDI (EDC16U1) ,checked the pin by log in on ecu and the ecu accepted the pin .But when i log in on the adaptation on immobiliser it says pin is not good and i have wait time 250 minutes.
Now the question comes : Can i just swap the MCU or E2P (i don t really know what it has inside) and put it from old esl to "new" esl ? Does all the esl has the same mcu or e2p ? The esl is the same manufactuerer year as the old one.Thanks

Buy new esl from dealer install in vehicle and adopt with pin code from car use vcds
30 min for installation 5 minutes for programming

nenadgorgi is correct you cant adapt a second hand one only new from dealer .....

I ve seen people adapt second hand units. What about swaping the mcus?

Don't confuse programming with a detail that's just changed places........learen.gif

Thanks for infos guys (or maybe not). SOLVED by swaping the mcus. Car started right up from first try.
