    Default Corsa D 1.3 CDTI 2008

    Hi guys, long story short
    I’ve got an corsa d 1.3 2008 Z13DTJ ecu water damaged.
    Is there any possibility to change all kit (BCM, ECM, cluster , airbag ecu) with a different ECU kit? My one it’s an Magneti Marelli and the other one it’s a Bosch. I think the Bosch kit came from the same year corsa d but A13DTC engine..
    Thanks

    And there is communication with the car at all, because it should be without an ECU with everything except the engine

    You have read this driver once, because you see a resistor that you desolder before reading, it can be in four different places and the car will not start because this is how the installation is done and then there is a different engine power

    Mate, I’m not about to desolder any resistor and not do any readings ...
    I’m just about to CHANGE all components forming the immo system (ecu, bcm, airbag ecu, key, barrel, lock) from another running car...

    Hi prodbecks,

    You need a matching ECU, your is 13DTJ engine & you get a kit off say, 13DT you may not have 100% running car.
    There are many differences between engine components & the ECU itself depending variant.

    The Bosch kit no good you have Magneti Marelli (Engine code Z13DTJ) & not A13DTC <---Different variant, system.

    Hope that helps you understand better.

    However this ECU is vary easily repaired from water damage, I have never failed yet with this ECU.
